More quotes by Pope Francis
Peace is handcrafted. It is made every day. Also friendship among people, mutual knowledge, esteem, is handcrafted. It's made every day. Respect the other, say that which one thinks, but with respect, but walk together.
Pope Francis
The Big Bang, which today we hold to be the origin of the world, does not contradict the intervention of the divine creator but, rather, requires it.
Pope Francis
I want to express my closeness to the people of the Philippines who have been struck by a strong earthquake, and I invite you to pray for that dear nation, which in recent days has suffered different calamities.
Pope Francis
Work ends up dehumanizing people.
Pope Francis
We need to provide an education which teaches critical thinking and encourages the development of mature moral values.
Pope Francis
The Sacraments are the manifestation of the Father’s tenderness and love towards each of us.
Pope Francis
We must overcome...all forms of racism. The problem of intolerance should be dealt with as a whole: every time a minority is persecuted and marginalized...the good of the whole society is in danger.
Pope Francis
Pay attention, my young friends: to go against the current this is good for the heart, but we need courage to swim against the tide. ... We Christians were not chosen by the Lord for little things push onwards toward the highest principles. Stake your lives on noble ideals, my dear young people!
Pope Francis
The mercy of Jesus is not just sentiment: indeed it is a force that gives life, that raises man up!
Pope Francis
Money is needed to bring about many good things but when your heart is attached, it destroys you
Pope Francis
Whenever people listen to one another humbly and openly, their shared values and aspirations become all the more apparent. Diversity is no longer seen as a threat, but as a source of enrichment.
Pope Francis
Obsession with a consumerist lifestyle, above all when few people are capable of maintaining it, can only lead to violence and mutual destruction.
Pope Francis
Don't let anyone rob you of hope.
Pope Francis
The Lord speaks to us through the Scriptures and in our prayer. Let us learn to keep silence before him, as we meditate upon the Gospel.
Pope Francis
He saw the threat of the family being destroyed by not being open to life or children. Paul VI was brave. He was a good pastor. He alerted his sheep, telling them that the wolves were approaching.
Pope Francis
To change the world we must be good to those who cannot repay us.
Pope Francis
Today everything comes under the laws of competition and the survival of the fittest, where the powerful feed upon the powerless. As a consequence, masses of people find themselves excluded and marginalized: without work, without possibilities, without any means of escape.
Pope Francis
Each encounter with Jesus changes our life.
Pope Francis
The only way to heal is to look at the Cross, to look at God Who takes upon Himself our sins: my sin is there.
Pope Francis
The Cross of Christ bears the suffering and the sin of mankind, including our own. Jesus accepts all this with open arms, bearing on His shoulders our crosses and saying to us: 'Have courage! You do not carry your cross alone! I carry it with you. I have overcome death and I have come to give you hope, to give you life' (John 3:16).
