More quotes by Pope Francis
The Earth is our environment to protect and the garden to tend to.
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
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
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 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
I distrust a charity that costs nothing and does not hurt.
Pope Francis
The parish is the presence of the Church in any given territory, an environment for hearing God's word, for growth in Christian life, for dialogue, proclamation, charitable outreach, worship and celebration.
Pope Francis
Christian hope is not a ghost and it does not deceive. It is a theological virtue and therefore, ultimately, a gift from God that cannot be reduced to optimism, which is only human. God does not mislead hope God cannot deny himself. God is all promise.
Pope Francis
Where there is no work, there is no dignity.
Pope Francis
Violence and war lead only to death.
Pope Francis
It is the attitude of some leaders of God's people they continually scold others, hurl reproaches at them, tell them to be quiet. ... 'Madam, take your crying child out of the church as I am preaching.' As if the cries of a child were not a sublime homily.
Pope Francis
When it comes to the care of our common home, we are living at a critical moment of history.
Pope Francis
Humanity needs justice, peace and love and we can have this only by returning with our hearts towards God who is the source of all this.
Pope Francis
To all people of good will who are working for social justice: never tire of working for a more just world, marked by greater solidarity!
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
I ask all people of goodwill to help build a culture of encounter, solidarity and peace
Pope Francis
Today is the World Day of Prayer for the Care of Creation. Let us work and pray.
Pope Francis
I think we too are the people who, on the one hand, want to listen to Jesus, but on the other hand, at times, like to find a stick to beat others with, to condemn others. And Jesus has this message for us: mercy. I think - and I say it with humility - that this is the Lord's most powerful message: mercy.
Pope Francis
You have a specific and important mission, that of keeping alive the relationship between the faith and the cultures of the peoples to whom you belong. . . . [W]e have to follow Christ along the concrete path of our daily lives so that he can transform us.
Pope Francis
Human dignity is the same for all human beings: when I trample on the dignity of another, I am trampling on my own.
Pope Francis
