It caused a stir when you chose the now famous camauro, a sort of peaked cap that had last been worn by John XXIII, as a head covering for the winter. Was that just a fashion accessory — or was it the expression of a return to tried and true forms in the Church?
I wore it only once. I was just cold, and I happen to have a sensitive head. And I said, since the camauro is there, then let’s put it on. But i was really just trying to fight off the cold. I haven’t put it on again since. In order to forestall over-interpretation.
