Pope Francis
Wretched are those who are vindictive and spiteful.
Pope Francis
Many people who are forced into emigration suffer and often die tragically many of their rights are violated, they are obliged to separate from their families and, unfortunately, continue to be subjected to racist attitudes and xenophobia.
Pope Francis
The life of Jesus is a life for others. It is a life of service.
Pope Francis
