The earth, our home, is beginning to look more and more like an immense pile of filth. In many parts of the planet, the elderly lament that once beautiful landscapes are now covered with rubbish.

More quotes by Pope Francis
Being Christian without the Church doesn't make sense. That's why the great Paul VI, said that the most absurd dichotomy is loving Christ without the Church. To listen to Christ, but not the Church. To be with Christ, but stay at the margins of the Church. It's not possible. It's an absurd dichotomy.
Pope Francis
Terrorism is everywhere. You think of the tribal terrorism of some African countries.
Pope Francis
Those called to the service of governance in the church need to have a strong sense of justice, so that any form of injustice becomes unacceptable.
Pope Francis
Worshipping is stripping ourselves of our idols, even the most hidden ones, and choosing the Lord as the centre, as the highway of our lives.
Pope Francis
Let's not be naive, we're not talking about a simple political battle it is a destructive pretension against the plan of God. We are not talking about a mere bill, but rather a machination of the Father of Lies that seeks to confuse and deceive the children of God.
Pope Francis
When a child has a bad dream and wakes up crying, Dad goes and says, 'Don't be afraid, don't be scared. I'm here.' The Lord speaks this way, too... Usually, Christmas seems like a very noisy feast, but we can use a bit of silence to hear these words of love, closeness and tenderness.
Pope Francis
Don't let anyone rob you of hope.
Pope Francis
The goods of the earth are meant for everyone.
Pope Francis
If I speak of Islamic violence, I must speak of Catholic violence.
Pope Francis
I beg the Lord to grant us more politicians who are genuinely disturbed by the state of society, the people, the lives of the poor!
Pope Francis
Division within a Christian community is a very grave sin it is the work of the devil.
Pope Francis
Needing to talk badly about others indicates low self esteem. That means, 'I feel so low that instead of picking myself up, I have to cut others down.' Letting go of negative things quickly is healthy.
Pope Francis
Lord Jesus, make us capable of loving as you love.
Pope Francis
Beware of getting too comfortable! When we are comfortable, it’s easy to forget other people.
Pope Francis
It is not enough to say we are Christians. We must live the faith, not only with our words, but with our actions.
Pope Francis
There are martyrs [between Mexican people], now I will canonize two. It is a population that you can't explain, you can't explain it because the word 'people' is not a logical category, it's a mythical category.
Pope Francis
I think that even the Mexican society is a victim of all of this, of these crimes of cleaning people, of discarding people.
Pope Francis
Let Jesus preach to you, and and let Jesus heal you. We are all wounded. Everyone.
Pope Francis
I had an experience of knowing the Polish people when I was a child, and where my father worked many Poles came to work after the war. They were good people, and this has stayed in my heart.
Pope Francis
Only those who serve with love are able to protect!
Pope Francis
