More quotes by Pope Francis
Dear young people, pray with me for peace in the world.
Pope Francis
The emptier a person's heart is, the more he or she needs to buy, own, and consume.
Pope Francis
We should all remember... that throwing food away is like stealing from the tables of the poor, the hungry! I encourage everyone to reflect on the problem of thrown away and wasted food to identify ways and means that, by seriously addressing this issue, are a vehicle of solidarity and sharing with the needy.
Pope Francis
My brothers, the United States Bishops, have reminded us, all are called to be vigilant, precisely as good citizens, to preserve and defend that freedom from everything that would threaten or compromise it.
Pope Francis
Pay attention, my young friends: to go against the current this is good for the heart, but we need courage to swim against the tide. ... We Christians were not chosen by the Lord for little things push onwards toward the highest principles. Stake your lives on noble ideals, my dear young people!
Pope Francis
Before God and his people I express my sorrow for the sins and grave crimes of clerical sexual abuse committed against you. And I humbly ask forgiveness.
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
We are called to reach out to those who find themselves in the existential peripheries of our societies and to show particular solidarity with the most vulnerable of our brothers and sisters: the poor, the disabled, the unborn and the sick, migrants and refugees, the elderly and the young who lack employment.
Pope Francis
Needing to talk badly about others indicates low self esteem. That means, 'I feel so low that instead of picking myself up, I have to cut others down.' Letting go of negative things quickly is healthy.
Pope Francis
It makes me sad when I find sisters who aren't joyful. They might smile, but with just a smile they could be flight attendants!
Pope Francis
The Christian mission has only one focus: to change individual's lives so they can change the world.
Pope Francis
Despite the slowness, the infidelity, the errors and sins it committed and might still commit against its members, the Church, trust me, has no other meaning and goal but to live and witness Jesus.
Pope Francis
When a society lacks God, even prosperity is joined by a terrible spiritual poverty.
Pope Francis
There is so much indifference in the face of suffering. May we overcome indifference with concrete acts of charity.
Pope Francis
It seems that humanity is incapable of putting a halt to the shedding of innocent blood.
Pope Francis
The earth, our home, is beginning to look more and more like an immense pile of filth. In many parts of the planet, the elderly lament that once beautiful landscapes are now covered with rubbish.
Pope Francis
Are we capable of bringing the word of God into the environment in which we live? Do we know how to speak of Christ, of what he represents for us, in our families, among the people who form part of our daily lives? Faith is born from listening, and is strengthened by proclamation.
Pope Francis
How many innocent people and children suffer in the world! Lord, grant us your peace!
Pope Francis
The Lord put it clearly: you cannot serve two masters. You have to choose between God and money.
Pope Francis
The family is a community of love where each of us learns to relate to others and to the world around us.
Pope Francis
