Fr Ian Ker: "When the Catholic Church canonises somebody they are talking about heroic virtue, heroic sanctity, that a person was heroic, they are not talking about somebody being faultless. I think sometimes people used to say 'O well, Newman had this fault and that fault, so he couldn't be a saint.' That is actually not relevant because no-one is perfect and indeed all the saints have faults. What the Church is looking for is a heroic quality, it is not looking for impeccability, it is looking for heroism and Newman heroically followed the kindly light of truth through his life."
