More quotes by Pope Francis
The Holy Spirit helps us to view others with fresh eyes, seeing them always as brothers and sisters in Jesus, to be respected and loved.
Pope Francis
We need to provide an education which teaches critical thinking and encourages the development of mature moral values.
Pope Francis
The Gospel, radiant with the glory of Christ’s cross, constantly invites us to rejoice.
Pope Francis
It also happens to me that when I meet a clericalist, I suddenly become anti-clerical. Clericalism should not have anything to do with Christianity. St. Paul, who was the first to speak to the Gentiles, the pagans, to believers in other religions, was the first to teach us that.
Pope Francis
We who are Christians, members of God’s family, are called to go out to the needy and to serve them.
Pope Francis
Some people believe that - pardon my language - in order to be good Catholics, we should be like rabbits. No.
Pope Francis
Let us never yield to pessimism, to that bitterness that the devil offers us every day.
Pope Francis
I invite [journalists] to seriously study the facts of Guadalupe. The Madonna is there. I cannot find another explanation.
Pope Francis
I dream of a church that is a mother and shepherdess.
Pope Francis
Instead of seeming to impose new obligations, they should appear as people who wish to share their joy, who point to a horizon of beauty and who invite others to a delicious banquet. It is not by proselytizing that the Church grows, but by attraction.
Pope Francis
The emptier a person's heart is, the more he or she needs to buy, own, and consume.
Pope Francis
We have to state, without mincing words, that there is an inseparable bond between our faith and the poor. May we never abandon them.
Pope Francis
If you withdraw into yourself, you run the risk of becoming egocentric. And stagnant water becomes putrid.
Pope Francis
Obeying God is listening to God, having an open heart to follow the path that God points out to us.
Pope Francis
If I'm not mistaken, Sigmund Freud said that in every idealisation there's an aggression. Depicting the Pope as a sort of Superman, a star, is offensive to me. The pope is a man who laughs, cries, sleeps calmly and has friends like everyone else. A normal person.
Pope Francis
May the power of Christ, which brings freedom and service, be felt in so many hearts afflicted by war, persecution and slavery.
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
I cannot live without people. I need to live my life with others.
Pope Francis
When Christians forget about hope and tenderness they become a cold Church, that loses its sense of direction and is held back by ideologies and worldly attitudes, whereas God’s simplicity tells you: go forward, I am a Father who caresses you.
Pope Francis
Once elected, the Pope is by virtue of the promise of Jesus to Peter, the Pope is preserved from the possibility of error. God would change any spend thrift politician into a responsible Pope.
