We remain silent about the most beautiful and, at the same time, necessary duty to stand by God and to give our lives willingly for Him.

Commemoration in culture and art Much attention in literature and art was devoted to Father Augustyn Kordecki. In 1855 the writer Józef Ignacy Kraszewski wrote the historical novel Kordecki. The character of the heroic father is also shown in the trilogy of Henryk Sienkiewicz, in one of its parts entitled The Flood. Elżbieta Bośniacka wrote a drama in 1872 entitled The Pauline Prior. A similar drama was also written by Maria Gerson-Dąbrowska, entitled Defense of Częstochowa.

You can tell from the gray beard and the lofty head that Kordecki's soul guards Częstochowa.Adam Mickiewicz spoke about Fr. Kordecki at lectures in Paris, including:Poland did not produce an active genius of such power as that monk's passive genius. It rises to the height from which it penetrates into the future (...). Kordecki is one of those people whom Providence sends from time to time as models for future generations. The Polish idea has never found its full embodiment as in it.Besides, his character is shown in many pictures, the most important of which are: January Suchodolski : Defense of Jasna Góra (1845) Władysław Łuszczkiewicz : Defense of Częstochowa by priest Kordecki (1848) Leon Kapliński : Defense of Częstochowa
