More quotes by Francis of Assisi

Francis of Assisi

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

Francis of Assisi
I have been all things unholy. If God can work through me, he can work through anyone.
Francis of Assisi
All the darkness in the world cannot extinguish the light of a single candle.
Francis of Assisi
You damned spirits! You can only do what the hand of God allows you to do.
