Image
Many powerful people don't want peace, because they live off war.
Pope Francis
Image
Every people deserves to conserve its identity without being ideologically colonised.
Pope Francis
Image
The family is where we are formed as people. Every family is a brick in the building of society
Pope Francis
Image
Do we open ourselves to the Holy Spirit, so as to be an active part of our communities, or do we close in on ourselves, saying 'I have so many things to do, that's not my job'?
Pope Francis
Image
I ask everyone with political responsibility to remember two things: human dignity and the common good.
Pope Francis
Image
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
Image
Having faith does not mean having no difficulties, but having the strength to face them, knowing we are not alone.
Pope Francis
Image
Being a Christian is not just about following commandments: it is about letting Christ take possession of our lives and transform them.
Pope Francis
Image
Where there is no work, there is no dignity.
Pope Francis
Image
The key phrase used by the synod, which I'll take up again, is 'integrate' in the life of the Church the wounded families, remarried families, etc. But of this one mustn't forget the children in the middle. They are the first victims, both in the wounds, and in the conditions of poverty, of work.
Pope Francis
Image
I allow myself to honor the man who fought in moments when he had no strength to impose himself, until he managed to impose himself. [Joseph] Ratzinger. Cardinal Ratzinger deserves applause.
Pope Francis
Image
God never closes off horizons He is never unconcerned about the lives and sufferings of His children. God never allows Himself to be outdone in generosity.
Pope Francis
Image
Whoever does not pray to God, prays to the devil.
Pope Francis
Image
It might be better - more comfortable - to have a dog and two cats. All the love is focused on the cats and the dog. Am I right or wrong here? Have you seen it? At the end of this marriage, comes old age and loneliness.
Pope Francis
Image
Tell me, when you give alms do you look into the eyes of the man or woman to whom you give alms? . . . And when you give alms, do you touch the hand of the one to whom you give alms, or do you toss the coin?
Pope Francis
Image
Wine is a sign of happiness, love and plenty, how many of our adolescents and young people sense that these are no longer found in their homes? How many women, sad and lonely, wonder when love left, when it slipped away from their lives? How many elderly people feel left out of family celebrations, cast aside and longing each day for a little love?
Pope Francis
Image
We must learn from Mary, and we must imitate her unconditional readiness to receive Christ in her life.
Pope Francis
Image
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
Image
God never tires of forgiving us we are the ones who tire of seeking his mercy.
Pope Francis
Image
To follow Jesus means putting him first, and stripping ourselves of all the things that oppress our hearts.
Pope Francis
