More quotes by Pope Francis
Certain realities of life we only see through eyes cleansed by our tears.
Pope Francis
Thank God [Donald Trump] said I was a politician because Aristotle defined the human person as 'animal politicus.' At least I am a human person. As to whether I am a pawn, well, maybe, I don't know. I'll leave that up to your judgment and that of the people.
Pope Francis
The real power is love, that which empowers others, that which arouses action, that which no chain is able to hold back, for even on the Cross or on the death bed one is able to love. One does not need youthful beauty, nor recognition or approval, nor money or prestige. Let love simply bloom...and it is unstoppable.
Pope Francis
If we wish to follow Christ closely, we cannot choose an easy, quiet life. It will be a demanding life, but full of joy.
Pope Francis
[Joseph Ratzinger] is a man who as the prefect of the Congregation for the Doctrine of the Faith had everything in his hands. He conducted all the investigations, and went on, went on, went on, until he couldn't go any further in the execution.
Pope Francis
If I speak of Islamic violence, I must speak of Catholic violence.
Pope Francis
In my own experience, including when I ask for advice, I would ask a collaborator, a friend, I also like to hear the opinion of a woman because they have such wealth. They look at things in a different way.
Pope Francis
It is not enough to say we are Christians. We must live the faith, not only with our words, but with our actions.
Pope Francis
The Gospel calls individual Christians to live lives of honesty, integrity and concern for the common good.. to create circles of integrity.., networks of solidarity which can expand to embrace and transform society by their prophetic witness.
Pope Francis
Proselytism is solemn nonsense, it makes no sense. We need to get to know each other, listen to each other and improve our knowledge of the world around us.
Pope Francis
An evangelizer must never look like someone who has just come back from a funeral.
Pope Francis
May each family rediscover family prayer, which helps to bring about mutual understanding and forgiveness.
Pope Francis
There is no such thing as low-cost Christianity. Following Jesus means swimming against the tide, renouncing evil and selfishness
Pope Francis
When I saw from Rome that catastrophe (brought by Yolanda) I had to be here. And on those very days I decided to come here. I am here to be with you – a little bit late, but I’m here.
Pope Francis
Defend the unborn against abortion even if they persecute you, calumniate you, set traps for you, take you to court or kill you.
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
How many innocent people and children suffer in the world! Lord, grant us your peace!
Pope Francis
To build peace is difficult but to live without it is torment.
Pope Francis
The human person is in danger: this is certain, the human person is in danger today, here is the urgency of human ecology! And it is a serious danger because the cause of the problem is not superficial but profound: it is not just a matter of economics, but of ethics and anthropology.
Pope Francis
How precious is the family as the privileged place for transmitting the faith.
Pope Francis
