More quotes by Pope Francis
Today one can read the Gospel also on so many technological instruments. You can carry the whole Bible on your mobile phone, on your tablet. It is important to read the Word of God, by any means, but by reading the Word of God: Jesus speaks to us there! And welcome it with an open heart. Then the good seed will bear fruit!
Pope Francis

Pope Francis
God loves us. May we discover the beauty of loving and being loved.
Pope Francis

Pope Francis

Pope Francis
It’s like in soccer: you have to deal with the penalties where they fall you can’t choose where they’re going to land. Life is like that, and you have to deal with it even if you don’t like it.
Pope Francis
Gossip can also kill, because it kills the reputation of the person! It is so terrible to gossip! At first it may seem like a nice thing, even amusing, like enjoying a candy. But in the end, it fills the heart with bitterness, and even poisons us.
Pope Francis
The teachings of the Gospel have direct consequences for our way of thinking, feeling and living.
Pope Francis
I will be praying with my best wishes that the Orthodox move ahead because they are brothers and their bishops are bishops like us.
Pope Francis
Christ leads us to go out from ourselves more and more, to give ourselves and to serve others.
Pope Francis
Before I give you a blessing, I ask you for a favor: I want you to bless me.
