Pope Gregory XII, the true pope during the Great Western Schism, some time after his voluntary abdication so a universally recognized successor pontiff could be elected, and the last words before his death: “I have not understood the world, and the world has not understood me.” (As quoted by Ludwig von Pastor in his work “The History of the Popes from the Close of the Middle Ages” Vol. 1, pub. 1891., pg. 202)
