Image
I feel so low that instead of picking myself up I have to cut others down.
Pope Francis
Image
Joy adapts and changes, but it always endures, even as a flicker of light born of our personal certainty that, when everything is said and done, we are infinitely loved.
Pope Francis
Image
And does not true freedom mean choosing ways in this world that lead to the good of all and are guided by love?
Pope Francis
Image
To imitate the hatred and violence of tyrants and murderers is the best way to take their place.
Pope Francis
Image
Your sins are great? Just tell the Lord: Forgive me, help me to get up again, change my heart!
Pope Francis
Image
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
Image
May God welcome the dead into his peace, comfort the families and convert the hearts of the violent ones, who do not even stop before children.
Pope Francis
Image
The Cross of Christ bears the suffering and the sin of mankind, including our own. Jesus accepts all this with open arms, bearing on His shoulders our crosses and saying to us: 'Have courage! You do not carry your cross alone! I carry it with you. I have overcome death and I have come to give you hope, to give you life' (John 3:16).
Pope Francis
Image
Let us go back to the Lord. The Lord never tires of forgiving: never! It is we who tire of asking his forgiveness. Let us ask for the grace not to tire of asking forgiveness, because he never tires of forgiving.
Pope Francis
Image
In the face of so many wounds that hurt us and could lead to a hardness of heart, we are called to dive into the sea of prayer, which is the sea of the boundless love of God, in order to experience his tenderness
Pope Francis
Image
Mere administration can no longer be enough. Throughout the world, let us be permanently in a state of mission.
Pope Francis
Image
God’s goodness is stronger than any evil!
Pope Francis
Image
Be dispensers of God's grace, not controllers. Don't be the Holy Spirit's customs agents.
Pope Francis
Image
We need to 'go out,' then, in order to experience our own anointing, its power and its redemptive efficacy: to the 'outskirts' where there is suffering, bloodshed, blindness that longs for sight, and prisoners in thrall to many evil masters.
Pope Francis
Image
Although the life of a person is in a land full of thorns and weeds, there is always a space in which the good seed can grow. You have to trust God.
Pope Francis
Image
If someone is gay and seeks the Lord with good will, who am I to judge?
Pope Francis
Image
Don't confuse the evil of avoiding pregnancy by itself, with abortion. Abortion is not a theological problem, it is a human problem, it is a medical problem. You kill one person to save another, in the best case scenario.
Pope Francis
Image
Let us all remember this: one cannot proclaim the Gospel of Jesus without the tangible witness of one's life.
Pope Francis
Image
I make a forceful and urgent call to the entire Catholic Church, and also to every Christian of other confessions, as well as to followers of every religion and to those brothers and sisters who do not believe: peace is a good which overcomes every barrier, because it belongs to all of humanity!
Pope Francis

Concealing or denying evil is like allowing a wound to keep bleeding without bandaging it.
Pope Francis
