More quotes by Pope Francis
The Gospel teaches us what Jesus' kingdom requires of us... Reminds us that closeness and tenderness are the rules of life.
Pope Francis
Humanity needs to see these gestures of peace and to hear words of hope and peace!
Pope Francis
The first setting in which faith enlightens the human city is the family.
Pope Francis
We need to be creative with young people. If they have no opportunities, they will get into drugs and be vulnerable to suicide.
Pope Francis
The emptier a person's heart is, the more he or she needs to buy, own, and consume.
Pope Francis
You cannot be a conscious Christian without St. Paul. He translated the teachings of Christ into a doctrinal structure that, even with the additions of a vast number of thinkers, theologians and pastors, has resisted and still exists after two thousand years.
Pope Francis
Lord, teach us to step outside ourselves. Teach us to go out into the streets and manifest your love.
Pope Francis
May each family rediscover family prayer, which helps to bring about mutual understanding and forgiveness.
Pope Francis
Through prayer, charity and humility before God, people receive a heart which is firm and merciful, attentive and generous, a heart which is not closed, indifferent or prey to the globalization of indifference.
Pope Francis
I see the church as a field hospital after battle. It is useless to ask a seriously injured person if he has high cholesterol and about the level of his blood sugars. You have to heal his wounds. Then we can talk about everything else.
Pope Francis
The imbalance results from ideologies which uphold the absolute autonomy of markets and financial speculation, and thus deny the right of control to States, which are themselves charged with providing for the common good.
Pope Francis
Being a Christian is not just about following commandments: it is about letting Christ take possession of our lives and transform them.
Pope Francis
Let love simply bloom... and it is unstoppable.
Pope Francis
I believe that Catholics involved in politics carry the values of their religion within them, but have the mature awareness and expertise to implement them. The Church will never go beyond its task of expressing and disseminating its values, at least as long as I'm here.
Pope Francis
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
Let's return to our first love, in order to receive the fire which Jesus has kindled in the world and to bring that fire to all people, to the very ends of the earth.
Pope Francis
Dearest brothers and sisters who are so persecuted, I know how much you suffer, I know that you are stripped of everything. I am with you in the faith of the one who has conquered evil!
Pope Francis
The Holy Spirit transforms and renews us, creates harmony and unity, and gives us courage and joy for mission.
Pope Francis
Religious life ought to promote growth in the Church by way of attraction. The Church must be attractive. Wake up the world! Be witnesses of a different way of doing things, of acting, of living! It is possible to live differently in this world.
Pope Francis
Be dispensers of God's grace, not controllers. Don't be the Holy Spirit's customs agents.
Pope Francis
