More quotes by Francis of Assisi
What does the poor man do at the rich man's door, the sick man in the presence of his physician, the thirsty man at a limpid stream? What they do, I do before the Eucharistic God. I pray. I adore. I love.
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
The brave unfortunate are our best acquaintance.
Francis of Assisi

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
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
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
You damned spirits! You can only do what the hand of God allows you to do.
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
Preach the gospel wherever you can when all else fails use words.
Francis of Assisi
Grant me the treasure of sublime poverty.
Francis of Assisi
Lord, help me to live this day, quietly, easily. To lean upon Thy great strength, trustfully, restfully. To wait for the unfolding of Thy will, patiently, serenely. To meet others, peacefully, joyously. To face tomorrow, confidently, courageously.
Francis of Assisi
