Image
It is not enough to say we are Christians. We must live the faith, not only with our words, but with our actions.
Pope Francis
Image
We need to include the excluded and preach peace.
Pope Francis
Image
The human person is in danger: this is certain, the human person is in danger today, here is the urgency of human ecology! And it is a serious danger because the cause of the problem is not superficial but profound: it is not just a matter of economics, but of ethics and anthropology.
Pope Francis
Image
You just can’t say that, just as you can’t say that all Christians are fundamentalists. We have our share of them (fundamentalists). All religions have these little groups.
Pope Francis
Image
We forget to remain focused on the things that really matter.
Pope Francis
Image
The imposition of anomalous models and lifestyles are alien to people's identity and, in the end, are irresponsible.
Pope Francis
Image
Let us never forget that it is the Lord who guides the Church. He is the one who makes our apostolates fruitful.
Pope Francis
Image
Let us never give in to pessimism, to that bitterness that the devil offers us every day. Do not give in to pessimism and discouragement. We have the firm certainty that the Holy Spirit gives the Church with His mighty breath, the courage to persevere and also to seek new methods of evangelization, to bring the Gospel to the ends of the earth.
Pope Francis
Image
You cannot provoke. You cannot insult the faith of others. You cannot make fun of the faith of others.
Pope Francis
Image
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
Image
We are far from the so called 'end of history,' since the conditions for a sustainable and peaceful development have not yet been adequately articulated and realized.
Pope Francis
Image
I do not believe it is right to identify Islam with violence. This is not right or true.
Pope Francis
Image
No one can grow if he does not accept his smallness.
Pope Francis
Image
The real power is love, that which empowers others, that which arouses action, that which no chain is able to hold back, for even on the Cross or on the death bed one is able to love. One does not need youthful beauty, nor recognition or approval, nor money or prestige. Let love simply bloom...and it is unstoppable.
Pope Francis
Image
If I'm not mistaken, Sigmund Freud said that in every idealisation there's an aggression. Depicting the Pope as a sort of Superman, a star, is offensive to me. The pope is a man who laughs, cries, sleeps calmly and has friends like everyone else. A normal person.
Pope Francis
Image
Idolatry, then, is always polytheism, an aimless passing from one lord to another. Idolatry does not offer a journey but rather a plethora of paths leading nowhere and forming a vast labyrinth.
Pope Francis
Image
Seeking happiness in material things is a sure way of being unhappy.
Pope Francis
Image
[Mexican people] have a culture, a culture that goes back millennia.
Pope Francis
Image
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
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
