Katalin Dávid's integrative personality has always been able to mobilize people of the most diverse worldviews and beliefs for noble goals, and is recognized by generations of scientists and artists as their mentor and guide. She is regarded by HAA as losing one of its own.

According to her "an explanation has to be found for the fact that everyone can experience, that Europe has refused, given up, and even wants to relegate to the periphery of life the heritage that shaped its existence, shaped its behaviour and moral foundations, determined its historical traditions, developed the specific European culture, and gave roots to all of this, the heritage of Christianity".
