More quotes by Pope Francis
To follow Jesus means putting him first, and stripping ourselves of all the things that oppress our hearts.
Pope Francis
In a very real way, the poor are our teachers. They show us that people’s value is not measured by their possessions or how much money they have in the bank. A poor person, a person lacking material possessions, always maintains his or her dignity. The poor can teach us much about humility and trust in God.
Pope Francis
Some people believe that - pardon my language - in order to be good Catholics, we should be like rabbits. No.
Pope Francis
An example I often use to illustrate the reality of vanity, is this: look at the peacock it's beautiful if you look at it from the front. But if you look at it from behind, you discover the truth... Whoever gives in to such self-absorbed vanity has huge misery hiding inside them.
Pope Francis
Let us keep the flame of faith alive through prayer and the sacraments: let us make sure we do not forget God.
Pope Francis
Let us not allow ourselves to be robbed of missionary enthusiasm!
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
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
Charity, patience and tenderness are very beautiful gifts. If you have them, you want to share them with others.
Pope Francis
It is difficult to judge the past by the criteria of the present.
Pope Francis
Dear young people, don't be afraid to marry. A faithful and fruitful marriage will bring you happiness.
Pope Francis
I sincerely hope I can contribute to the progress there has been in relations between Jews and Catholics since the Second Vatican Council in a spirit of renewed collaboration.
Pope Francis
I made reference continuously to the killings, the death, the life taken by all of these narcotrafficking gangs and human smugglers. I spoke of this problem as one of the wounds that Mexico suffers. It's a great pain that I'm taking, because this nation [Mexicans] doesn't deserve a drama like this one.
Pope Francis
The Pope doesn't get mixed up in Italian politics.
Pope Francis
The proclamation of Jesus is not a veneer: the proclamation of Jesus goes straight to the bones, heart, goes deep within and change us. And the spirit of the world does not tolerate it, will not tolerate it, and therefore, there is persecution.
Pope Francis
To be a mother is a great treasure. Mothers, in their unconditional and sacrificial love for their children, are the antidote to individualism they are the greatest enemies against war.
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
If we learn to say we're sorry and ask forgiveness, the marriage will last.
Pope Francis
Around us there is the presence of evil. The devil is at work. But in a loud voice I say: GOD IS STRONGER.
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
