Journalists sometimes risk becoming ill from coprophilia and thus fomenting coprophagia: which is a sin that taints all men and women, that is, the tendency to focus on the negative rather than the positive aspects.
Pope Francis
Charity that does not change the situation of the poor isn't enough.
Pope Francis
A simple lifestyle is good for us, helping us to better share with those in need.
Pope Francis
