It's true, harm to Catholics must always be avoided, and all of us do this...but not at the price of the truth!
Pope Francis
The love of God is not generic. God looks with love upon every man and woman, calling them by name.
Pope Francis
Every Catholic parliamentarian must vote according their well-formed conscience. I would say just this. I believe it is sufficient because - I say well-formed because it is not the conscience of 'what seems to me.'
Pope Francis

Pope Francis
Each person, and every people hungers and thirsts for peace therefore, it is necessary and urgent to build peace!
Pope Francis
If priest is closed to forgiveness, he won't receive it, because he locked the door from the inside. And what remains is to pray for the Lord to open that door. To forgive you must be willing. But not everyone can receive or know how to receive it, or are just not willing to receive it.

Pope Francis
This is precisely the reason for the dissatisfaction of some, who end up sad - sad priests - in some sense becoming collectors of antiques or novelties, instead of being shepherds living with 'the odor of the sheep.' This I ask you: Be shepherds, with the 'odor of the sheep,' make it real, as shepherds among your flock, fishers of men.
Pope Francis
Although it is a symbol of life, the female body is unfortunately not rarely attacked and disfigured, even by those who should be its protector and life companion.
Pope Francis
When we do not adore God, we adore something else. Money and power are false idols which often take the place of God.
Pope Francis
Division within a Christian community is a very grave sin it is the work of the devil.
Pope Francis
Grace is not part of consciousness it is the amount of light in our souls, not knowledge nor reason.

Pope Francis
Let us draw from the crib the joy and deep peace that Jesus comes to bring to the world.
Pope Francis
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
I think both freedom of religion and freedom of expression are both fundamental human rights, everyone has not only the freedom and the right but the obligation to say what Pope Francis thinks for the common good... we have the right to have this freedom openly without offending.
