The bishop emphasized the importance of courage for clergymen, comparing it to that required by a military colonel. He suggested that while both roles demand bravery, the nature of their courage differs significantly.

Furthermore, he stressed that the kind of courage needed for a clergyman should be gentle and compassionate, reflecting the values of kindness and understanding that are central to their spiritual mission, as illustrated in Victor Hugo's "Les Miserables."
