More quotes by Pope Francis
Anyone who wants to be pope doesn't care much for themselves, God doesn't bless them. I didn't want to be pope.
Pope Francis
Fathers are so necessary as examples and guides for our children in wisdom and virtue. Without father figures, young people often feel orphaned left adrift at a critical moment in their growth and development.
Pope Francis
That which gives us true freedom and true happiness is the compassionate love of Christ.
Pope Francis
It is the attitude of some leaders of God's people they continually scold others, hurl reproaches at them, tell them to be quiet. ... 'Madam, take your crying child out of the church as I am preaching.' As if the cries of a child were not a sublime homily.
Pope Francis
Things have a price and can be for sale. But people have a dignity that is priceless and worth far more than things.
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
Where the elderly are not honored, there is no future for the young.
Pope Francis
May all people here find inspiration and strength to build a future of reconciliation, justice and peace for all the children of this beloved land.
Pope Francis
It is now, more than ever, necessary that political leaders be outstanding for honesty, integrity and commitment to the common good. Thus will they be able to marshal the moral resources needed to face the demands of the present, and to pass on to coming generations a society of authentic justice, solidarity and peace.
Pope Francis
I believe in the old warrior's credo that to the victor go the spoils.
Pope Francis
Instead of seeming to impose new obligations, they should appear as people who wish to share their joy, who point to a horizon of beauty and who invite others to a delicious banquet. It is not by proselytizing that the Church grows, but by attraction.
Pope Francis
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
Don't confuse the evil of avoiding pregnancy by itself, with abortion.
Pope Francis
How beautiful it is to see that young people are 'street preachers,' joyfully bringing Jesus to every street, every town square and every corner of the earth!
Pope Francis
We must walk united with our differences: there is no other way to become one. This is the way of Jesus.
Pope Francis
How many innocent people and children suffer in the world! Lord, grant us your peace!
Pope Francis
It is not possible to go backwards. We must go forward. Always forward.
Pope Francis
When I saw from Rome that catastrophe (brought by Yolanda) I had to be here. And on those very days I decided to come here. I am here to be with you – a little bit late, but I’m here.
Pope Francis
Now, at the end of my visit to the Philippines, I commend you to Him, to Jesus who came among us as a child. May He enable all the beloved people of this country to work together, protecting one another, beginning with your families and communities, in building a world of justice, integrity and peace.
Pope Francis
Thank God [Donald Trump] said I was a politician because Aristotle defined the human person as 'animal politicus.' At least I am a human person. As to whether I am a pawn, well, maybe, I don't know. I'll leave that up to your judgment and that of the people.
