More quotes by Francis of Assisi
The brave unfortunate are our best acquaintance.
Francis of Assisi
I therefore command all my Brothers, those living now and those to come in the future, to venerate the Holy Mother of God, whom we always implore to be our Protectress, to praise her at all times, in all circumstances of life, with all the means in their power and with the greatest devotion and submission.
Francis of Assisi
Do few things but do them well, simple joys are holy.
Francis of Assisi
You should never praise anyone until you see how he turns out in the end!
Francis of Assisi
I have sinned against my brother the ass.
Francis of Assisi
Everything in man should halt in awe...Let all the world quake and let Heaven exult when Christ the Son of the living God is there on the altar.
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
Lord, grant that I might not so much seek to be loved as to love.
Francis of Assisi
Remember that when you leave this earth, you can take with you nothing that you have received - only what you have given: a full heart, enriched by honest service, love, sacrifice and courage.
Francis of Assisi
We have been called to heal wounds, to unite what has fallen away, and to bring home those who have lost their way. Many who seem to us to be children of the Devil will still become Christ's disciples.
Francis of Assisi
Don't canonize me too soon. I'm perfectly capable of fathering a child.
Francis of Assisi
Where there is injury let me sow pardon.
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
Don't change the world, change worlds.
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
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
The world is a great stage on which God displays his many wonders.
Francis of Assisi
It is not fitting, when one is in God's service, to have a gloomy face or a chilling look.
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
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
