More quotes by Francis of Assisi
God requires that we assist the animals, when they need our help. Each being (human or creature) has the same right of protection.
Francis of Assisi
I have been all things unholy. If God can work through me, he can work through anyone.
Francis of Assisi
Where there is discord may we bring harmony. Where there is error, may we bring truth. Where there is doubt, may we bring faith. Where there is despair, may we bring hope.
Francis of Assisi
All things of creation are children of the Father and thus brothers of man. ... God wants us to help animals, if they need help. Every creature in distress has the same right to be protected.
Francis of Assisi
God could not have chosen anyone less qualified, or more of a sinner, than myself. And so, for this wonderful work He intends to perform through us, He selected me- for God always chooses the weak and the absurd, and those who count for nothing.
Francis of Assisi
Nor did demons crucify Him it is you who have crucified Him and crucify Him still, when you delight in your vices and sins.
Francis of Assisi
Such was the will of the Father that his Son, blessed and glorious, whom he gave to us, and who was born for us, should by his own blood, sacrifice, and oblation, offer himself on the altar of the cross, not for himself, by whom all things were made, but for our sins, leaving us an example that we should follow his steps.
Francis of Assisi
You should never praise anyone until you see how he turns out in the end!
Francis of Assisi
Go out and preach the gospel and if you must, use words.
Francis of Assisi
Don't change the world, change worlds.
Francis of Assisi
It would be considered a theft on our part if we didn't give to someone in greater need than we are.
Francis of Assisi
Do not put off any longer confessing all your sins, for death will soon come. Give and it will be given you forgive and you will be forgiven. . . Blessed are they who die repentant, for they shall go to the Kingdom of Heaven!
Francis of Assisi
What is it that stands higher than words? Action. What is it that stands higher than action? Silence.
Francis of Assisi
Not to hurt our humble brethren is our first duty to them, but to stop there is not enough. We have a higher mission - to be of service to them whenever they require it.
Francis of Assisi
A single sunbeam is enough to drive away many shadows.
Francis of Assisi
Be patient in trials, watchful in prayer, and never cease working.
Francis of Assisi
Be praised, my Lord, through those who forgive for love of you through those who endure sickness and trial.
Francis of Assisi
All the darkness in the world cannot extinguish the light of a single candle.
Francis of Assisi
Where there is darkness, let there be light.
Francis of Assisi
Start by doing what's necessary then do what's possible and suddenly you are doing the impossible.
Francis of Assisi
