More quotes by Pope Francis
We are a church of sinners but we must not be afraid of holiness. Do not be afraid to aim for holiness and turn yourselves over to the love of God. Holiness does not mean performing extraordinary things but carrying out daily things in an extraordinary way that is with love, joy and faith.
Pope Francis
In the Gospel we have just heard, Jesus, the Master, teaches the crowds and the small group of his disciples by accommodating himself to their ability to understand. ... Jesus does not seek to 'play the professor.' Instead, he seeks to reach people's hearts, their understanding and their lives, so that they may bear fruit.
Pope Francis
It is true that going out on to the street implies the risk of accidents happening, as they would to any ordinary man or woman. But if the church stays wrapped up in itself, it will age. And if I had to choose between a wounded church that goes out on to the streets and a sick, withdrawn church, I would definitely choose the first one.
Pope Francis
We are not alone. We have many brothers who in this moment of catastrophe came to help. And we too, because of this, we feel more like brothers and sisters because we helped each other.
Pope Francis
It's not a problem that we're sinners it's a problem that we aren't ashamed of our sin and don't seek forgiveness.
Pope Francis
We need to be creative with young people. If they have no opportunities, they will get into drugs and be vulnerable to suicide.
Pope Francis
We ask the risen Jesus, who turns death into life, to change hatred into love, vengeance into forgiveness, war into peace. Yes, Christ is our peace, and through him to implore peace for all the world.
Pope Francis
If you withdraw into yourself, you run the risk of becoming egocentric. And stagnant water becomes putrid.
Pope Francis
Whoever does not pray to God, prays to the devil.
Pope Francis
A person who is not convinced, enthusiastic, certain and in love, will convince nobody.
Pope Francis
It [abortion] is a crime, an absolute evil.
Pope Francis
Jesus is God but he humbled himself to walk with us. He is our friend, our brother.
Pope Francis
The Earth is our environment to protect and the garden to tend to.
Pope Francis
May Christ the Savior give peace to Nigeria, where more blood is being shed and too many people are unjustly deprived of their possessions, held as hostages or killed.
Pope Francis
Whenever our interior life becomes caught up in its own interests and concerns, there is no longer room for others, no place for the poor.
Pope Francis
Now, at the end of my visit to the Philippines, I commend you to Him, to Jesus who came among us as a child. May He enable all the beloved people of this country to work together, protecting one another, beginning with your families and communities, in building a world of justice, integrity and peace.
Pope Francis
You can't have Christ without the Church.
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
Let no one consider themselves to be the 'armour' of God while planning and carrying out acts of violence and oppression!
Pope Francis
The time has come for the Church to take up the joyful call to mercy once more. It is time to return to the basics and to bear the weaknesses and struggles of our brothers and sisters. Mercy is the force that reawakens us to new life and instils in us the courage to look to the future with hope.
Pope Francis
