More quotes by Pope Francis
Young people are just as attracted to the truth as they are convenience and expediency.
Pope Francis
Let us not forget this word: God never ever tires of forgiving us!
Pope Francis
I had the habit of not accepting prizes or honors, but always, not out of humility, but because I don't like them. Maybe it's a little crazy, but it's good to have it, but I just don't like them.
Pope Francis
God is not afraid of new things.
Pope Francis
Let us never lose hope! God loves us always, even with our mistakes and sins.
Pope Francis
Whenever we take a step towards Jesus, we come to realize that he is already there, waiting for us with open arms.
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
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
Every Christian is a missionary to the extent that he or she bears witness to God’s love. Be missionaries of God’s tenderness!
Pope Francis
I have come that they may have life and have it in abundance, says Jesus. This is where true wealth is found, not in material things!
Pope Francis
Among us, who is above must be in service of the others. This doesn't mean we have to wash each other's feet every day, but we must help one another.
Pope Francis
Jesus receives us with all of our limitations, He bring us the mercy of the Father who forgives us, and transforms our heart, rendering it a new heart, capable of loving Him, who loved His own to the end (cf. John 13:1). And this love is manifested in his mercy. Jesus always forgives us.
Pope Francis
The rosary is spiritual medicine.
Pope Francis
My authoritarian and quick manner of making decisions led me to have serious problems and to be accused of being ultraconservative. I have never been a right-winger. It was my authoritarian way of making decisions that created problems.
Pope Francis
Drug addiction is an evil, and with evil there can be no yielding or compromise.
Pope Francis
The Golden Rule reminds us of our responsibility to protect and defend human life at every stage of its development. This conviction has led me, from the beginning of my ministry, to advocate at different levels for the global abolition of the death penalty.
Pope Francis
You can't have Christ without the Church.
Pope Francis
The imposition of anomalous models and lifestyles are alien to people's identity and, in the end, are irresponsible.
Pope Francis
Take good care of creation. St. Francis wanted that. People occasionally forgive, but nature never does. If we don't take care of the environment, there's no way of getting around it.
Pope Francis
Laboratories are useful, but reflection for us must always start from experience.
Pope Francis
