More quotes by Francis of Assisi
Lord, make me an instrument of thy peace. Where there is hatred, let me sow love.
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
I beg you to show the greatest possible reverence and honor for the most holy Body and Blood of our Lord Jesus Christ, through whom all things, whether on earth or in heaven, have been brought to peace and reconciled with Almighty God
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
Ask the beasts and they will teach you the beauty of this earth.
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
Where there is injury let me sow pardon.
Francis of Assisi
Jesus is happy to come with us, as truth is happy to be spoken, as life to be lived, as light to be lit, as love is to be loved, as joy to be given, as peace to be spread.
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
I have been all things unholy. If God can work through me, he can work through anyone.
Francis of Assisi
Start by doing what's necessary then do what's possible and suddenly you are doing the impossible.
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
What is it that stands higher than words? Action. What is it that stands higher than action? Silence.
Francis of Assisi
May the power of your love, Lord Christ, fiery and sweet as honey, so absorb our hearts as to withdraw them from all that is under heaven. Grant that we may be ready to die for love of your love, as you died for love of our love.
Francis of Assisi
By the anxieties and worries of this life Satan tries to dull man's heart and make a dwelling for himself there.
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
Be praised, my Lord, through those who forgive for love of you through those who endure sickness and trial.
Francis of Assisi
Go out and preach the gospel and if you must, use words.
