More quotes by Pope Benedict XVI
A theologian who does not love art, poetry, music and nature can be dangerous. Blindness and deafness toward the beautiful are not incidental they necessarily are reflected in his theology.
Pope Benedict XVI
Every human being is loved by God the Father. No one need feel forgotten, for every name is written in the Lord's loving heart.
Pope Benedict XVI
In the world in which we live, it is almost a necessity to be able to regain one's strength of body and spirit, especially for those who live in the city, where the conditions of life, often feverish, leave little room for silence, reflection and relaxed contact with nature.
Pope Benedict XVI
Adoration outside Holy Mass prolongs and intensifies what has taken place in the liturgical celebration and makes a true and profound reception of Christ possible. I . . . warmly recommend, to Pastors and to all the faithful, the practice of Eucharistic adoration
Pope Benedict XVI
Every State has the primary duty to protect its own population from grave and sustained violations of human rights, as well as from the consequences of humanitarian crises, whether natural or man-made.
Pope Benedict XVI

Pope Benedict XVI
Being a Christian means having love. That is unbelievably difficult and, at the same time, incredibly simple.
Pope Benedict XVI
Consecrated life means going to the very root of the love of Jesus Christ with an undivided heart and putting nothing ahead of this love.
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
Continue to witness to the Gospel every day and commit yourselves generously in the next missionary initiatives in the Diocese of Rome.
Pope Benedict XVI
The world promises you comfort, but you were not made for comfort. You were made for greatness.
Pope Benedict XVI
Look at the face of the other... discover that he has a soul, a history and a life, that he is a person and that God loves this person.
Pope Benedict XVI
Food security is an authentically human requirement. Guaranteeing it for present and future generations also means safeguarding ourselves against the uncontrolled exploitation of natural resources. Indeed, the process of consumption and waste seems to overlook any concern for ... biodiversity, which is so important for agriculture.
Pope Benedict XVI
Friends, do not be afraid of silence or stillness. Listen to God. Adore Him in the Eucharist.
Pope Benedict XVI
A thirst for the infinite is indelibly present in human beings. Man was created to have a relationship with God we need him.
Pope Benedict XVI
Celibacy is not a matter of compulsion. Someone is accepted as a priest only when he does it of his own accord.
