More quotes by Pope Francis
Abortion is not the lesser of two evils. It is a crime. It is to throw someone out in order to save another.
Pope Francis
Let us pray for peace: peace in the world and in each of our hearts.
Pope Francis
States kill when they apply the death penalty, when they send their people to war, or when they carry out extra-judicial or summary executions. They can also kill by omission, when they fail to guarantee to their people access to the bare essentials for life.
Pope Francis
There is so much indifference in the face of suffering. May we overcome indifference with concrete acts of charity.
Pope Francis
Let us not close our hearts, let us not lose confidence, let us never give up: there are no situations which God cannot change, there is no sin which he cannot forgive if only we open ourselves to him.
Pope Francis
Despite the slowness, the infidelity, the errors and sins it committed and might still commit against its members, the Church, trust me, has no other meaning and goal but to live and witness Jesus.
Pope Francis
Where the elderly are not honored, there is no future for the young.
Pope Francis
The border between good and evil passes not outside of us but within us
Pope Francis
Human trafficking is a crime against humanity. We must unite our efforts to free the victims and stop this increasingly aggressive crime which threatens not only individuals but the basic values of society.
Pope Francis

Pope Francis
Let love simply bloom... and it is unstoppable.
Pope Francis
If money and material things become the center of our lives, they seize us and make us slaves.
Pope Francis

Pope Francis
May all people here find inspiration and strength to build a future of reconciliation, justice and peace for all the children of this beloved land.
Pope Francis
Each of us has a vision of good and of evil. We have to encourage people to move towards what they think is good... Everyone has his own idea of good and evil and must choose to follow the good and fight evil as he conceives them. That would be enough to make the world a better place.
Pope Francis
The Eucharist is essential for us: it is Christ who wishes to enter our lives and fill us with his grace.
Pope Francis
At times we can be self-absorbed. Lord, help us to open our hearts to others and to serve those who are most vulnerable.
Pope Francis
Do I guard myself, my heart, my feelings, my thoughts? Do I guard the treasure of grace? Do I guard the presence of the Holy Spirit in me? Or do I let go, feeling secure, believing that all is going well?
Pope Francis
Human trafficking is a scourge, a crime against the whole of humanity. It is time to join forces and work together to free its victims and to eradicate this crime that affects all of us, from individual families to the worldwide community.
Pope Francis
Education, work, and access to health care for all are key elements for development and the just distribution of goods, for the attainment of social justice, for membership in society, and for free and responsible participation in political life.
Pope Francis
