Pope Francis

Pay attention, my young friends: to go against the current this is good for the heart, but we need courage to swim against the tide. ... We Christians were not chosen by the Lord for little things push onwards toward the highest principles. Stake your lives on noble ideals, my dear young people!
Pope Francis

Pope Francis
Image
Sometimes negative news does come out, but it is often exaggerated and manipulated to spread scandal. 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
Image
Dear young people, Jesus gives us life, life in abundance. If we are close to him we will have joy in our hearts and a smile on our face.
Pope Francis
Image
Every Christian is a missionary to the extent that he or she bears witness to God’s love. Be missionaries of God’s tenderness!
Pope Francis
Image
It does not render justice to the victims, but rather fosters vengeance.
Pope Francis
