More quotes by 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
Pleased be you, my Lord, with all your creatures, especially Sir Brother Sun, who is the day and through whom you give us light. And he is beautiful and radiant with great splendours and bears likeness of you, Most High One.
Francis of Assisi
The deeds you do may be the only sermon some persons will hear today.
Francis of Assisi
I have been all things unholy. If God can work through me, he can work through anyone.
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
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

Francis of Assisi
It was easy to love God in all that was beautiful. The lessons of deeper knowledge, though, instructed me to embrace God in all things.
Francis of Assisi
Be patient in trials, watchful in prayer, and never cease working.
Francis of Assisi
Dear God, please reveal to us your sublime beauty, that is everywhere, everywhere, everywhere, so that we will never again feel frightened.
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
Be patient, because the weaknesses of the body are given to us in this world by God for the salvation of the soul. So they are of great merit when they are borne patiently.
Francis of Assisi
Our hands imbibe like roots, so i place them on what is beautiful in this world. And I fold them in prayer, and they draw from the heavens light
Francis of Assisi
All the darkness in the world cannot extinguish the light of a single candle.
Francis of Assisi
What is it that stands higher than words? Action. What is it that stands higher than action? Silence.
Francis of Assisi
Go out and preach the gospel and if you must, use words.
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
Do all you can to preach the gospel and if necessary use words!
Francis of Assisi
I believe that You, O Jesus, are in the most holy Sacrament. I love You and desire You. Come into my heart. I embrace You. Oh, never leave me. May the burning and most sweet power of Your love, O Lord Jesus Christ, I beseech You, absorb my mind that I may die through love of Your love, Who were graciously pleased to die through love of my love.
Francis of Assisi
