More quotes by Pope Francis
Wretched are those who are vindictive and spiteful.
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 And if I had to choose between a wounded church that goes out on to the streets and a sick, withdrawn church, I would definitely choose the first one.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
The cry of a baby is God's voice: never drive them away from the church!
Pope Francis
The Lord always grants more than what he has been asked: you ask him to remember you, and he brings you into his Kingdom!
Pope Francis
I love tango, and I used to dance when I was young.
Pope Francis
Total openness to serving others is our hallmark, it alone is our title of honour!
Pope Francis
There is so much indifference in the face of suffering. May we overcome indifference with concrete acts of charity.
Pope Francis
It is important to integrate immigrants into society and to welcome them in the church community
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
Jesus spoke in such a way that the people loved the things of God. That’s why they followed him.
Pope Francis
Lord Jesus, make us capable of loving as you love.
Pope Francis
I know married Catholics in a second union who go to church, who go to church once or twice a year and say I want communion, as if joining in Communion were an award. It's a work towards integration, all doors are open, but we cannot say, 'from here on they can have communion.'
Pope Francis
It makes no difference whether they be Catholics, Orthodox, Copts or Protestants. They are Christians! Their blood is one and the same. Their blood confesses Christ.
Pope Francis
When a society lacks God, even prosperity is joined by a terrible spiritual poverty.
Pope Francis
We need to avoid the spiritual sickness of a church that is wrapped up in its own world: when a church becomes like this, it grows sick.
Pope Francis
Every religion has its dignity ... in freedom of expression there are limits.
Pope Francis
May no one use religion as a pretext for actions against human dignity and against the fundamental rights of every man and woman.
Pope Francis
If someone is gay and is searching for the Lord and has good will, then who am I to judge him?... No one should marginalize these people for this, they must be integrated into society.
Pope Francis
Don't confuse the evil of avoiding pregnancy by itself, with abortion. Abortion is not a theological problem, it is a human problem, it is a medical problem. You kill one person to save another, in the best case scenario.
Pope Francis
