More quotes by Pope Benedict XVI
The Cardinals have elected me, a simple and humble labourer in the vineyard of the Lord. The fact that the Lord knows how to work and to act even with inadequate instruments comforts me, and above all I entrust myself to your prayers.
Pope Benedict XVI
Dear brothers and sisters, after the great Pope John Paul II, the cardinals have elected me - a simple, humble worker in the vineyard of the Lord.
Pope Benedict XVI
Without the Eucharist, the Church simply does not exist.
Pope Benedict XVI
The Faith does not mean an alienation from any culture for any people because all cultures await Christ and are not destroyed by the Lord. In fact, they reach their maturity.
Pope Benedict XVI
God's love does not distinguish between the infant in the mother's womb or the child or the youth or the adult or the older person. In each one God sees His image and likeness. Human life is a manifestation of God and His glory.
Pope Benedict XVI

Pope Benedict XVI
I am simply a pilgrim beginning the last leg of his pilgrimage on this earth.
Pope Benedict XVI
For in this world, marked by sin, the gravitational pull of our lives is weighted by the chains of the I and the self. These chains must be broken to free us for a new love that places us in another gravitational field where we can enter new life.
Pope Benedict XVI
Men and women cannot rest content with a superficial and unquestioning exchange of skeptical opinions and experiences of life - all of us are in search of truth and we share this profound yearning today more than ever.
Pope Benedict XVI
Art means: revealing God in everything that exists.
Pope Benedict XVI
The proclamation and witness of the Gospel are the first service that Christians can offer every person and the whole human race, as they are called to communicate to all the love of God, who manifested himself fully in the only Redeemer of the world, Jesus Christ.
Pope Benedict XVI
The fundamental task of the evangelization of culture is the challenge to make God visible in the human face of Jesus.
Pope Benedict XVI
Over the pope as expression of the binding claim of ecclesiastical authority, there stands one's own conscience which must be obeyed before all else, even if necessary against the requirement of ecclesiastical authority.
Pope Benedict XVI
We are still awaiting Easter we are not yet standing in the full light but walking toward it full of trust.
Pope Benedict XVI
During the season of Lent which begins today, we renew our commitment to the path of conversion, making more room for God in our lives.
