But always think this: do not be afraid of failure. Do not be afraid of falling. In the art of walking, what is important is not avoiding the fall but not remaining fallen.

More quotes by Pope Francis
You might say, 'Can't we have a more human Christianity, without the cross, without Jesus, without stripping ourselves?' In this way we'd become pastry-shop Christians, like a pretty cake and nice sweet things. Pretty, but not true Christians.
Pope Francis
Miracles happen. But prayer is needed! Prayer that is courageous, struggling and persevering, not prayer that is a mere formality.
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
Human life must always be defended from its beginning in the womb and must be recognised as a gift of God that guarantees the future of humanity.
Pope Francis
Each of us has a vision of good and of evil. We have to encourage people to move towards what they think is good... Everyone has his own idea of good and evil and must choose to follow the good and fight evil as he conceives them. That would be enough to make the world a better place.
Pope Francis
Let us ask Mary to help us fix our eyes intently on Jesus, to follow him always, even when this is demanding.
Pope Francis
All revealed truths derive from the same divine source and are to be believed with the same faith, yet some of them are more important for giving direct expression to the heart of the Gospel. In this basic core, what shines forth is the beauty of the saving love of God made manifest in Jesus Christ who died and rose from the dead.
Pope Francis
Dear young people, let us not be satisfied with a mediocre life. Be amazed by what is true and beautiful, what is of God!
Pope Francis
The fact is that woman was taken from a rib.
Pope Francis
Peace is a daily commitment. It is a homemade peace.
Pope Francis
I would like especially to mention you, the women, wives and mothers of Paraguay, who at great cost and sacrifice were able to lift up a country defeated, devastated and laid low by an abominable war. God bless your perseverance, God bless and encourage your faith, God bless the women of Paraguay, the most glorious women of America.
Pope Francis
Jesus is the sun and Mary is the dawn announcing his rising.
Pope Francis
There is never a reason to lose hope. Jesus says: “I am with you until the end of the world.
Pope Francis
Breathing is made up of two stages: inhaling, the intake of air, and exhaling, the letting out of air. The spiritual life is fed, nourished, by prayer and is expressed outwardly through mission: inhaling and exhaling. When we inhale, by prayer, we receive the fresh air of the Holy Spirit.
Pope Francis
May Christ the Savior give peace to Nigeria, where more blood is being shed and too many people are unjustly deprived of their possessions, held as hostages or killed.
Pope Francis
An evangelizing community gets involved in word and deed in people’s daily lives it bridges distances, it is willing to abase itself if necessary, and it embraces human life, touching the suffering flesh of Christ in others
Pope Francis
If, in your relationship with the Lord, you do not feel that He loves you tenderly, you are missing something, you still have not understood what grace is, you have not yet received grace which is this closeness.
Pope Francis
Almost without being aware of it, we end up being incapable of feeling compassion at the outcry of the poor, weeping for other people's pain, and feeling a need to help them, as though all this were someone else's responsibility and not our own.
Pope Francis
I recognize that globalization has helped many people rise out of poverty, but it has also damned many others to starve to death. It is true that global wealth is growing in absolute terms, but inequalities have also grown and new poverty arisen.
Pope Francis
There is so much indifference in the face of suffering. May we overcome indifference with concrete acts of charity.
Pope Francis
