More quotes by Pope Francis
People in every nation enhance the social dimension of their lives by acting as committed and responsible citizens.
Pope Francis
Today everything comes under the laws of competition and the survival of the fittest, where the powerful feed upon the powerless. As a consequence, masses of people find themselves excluded and marginalized: without work, without possibilities, without any means of escape.
Pope Francis
When a society lacks God, even prosperity is joined by a terrible spiritual poverty.
Pope Francis
We, the women and men of the Church, we are in the middle of a love story: each of us is a link in this chain of love. And if we do not understand this, we have understood nothing of what the Church is.
Pope Francis
Lent is a good time for sacrificing. Let us deny ourselves something every day to help others.
Pope Francis
You can't provoke, you can't insult the faith of others, you can't make fun of faith.
Pope Francis
Once capital becomes an idol and guides people's decisions, once greed for money presides over the entire socioeconomic system, it ruins society, it condemns and enslaves men and women, it destroys human fraternity, it sets people against one another and it even puts at risk our common home.
Pope Francis
The one who listens attentively to the Word of God and truly prays, always asks the Lord: what is your will for me?
Pope Francis
Every child that isn't born, but is unjustly condemned to be aborted, has the face of Jesus Christ, has the face of the Lord.
Pope Francis
Let us pray for peace, and let us bring it about, starting in our own homes.
Pope Francis
When families bring children into the world, train them in faith and sound values, and teach them to contribute to society, they become a blessing in our world.
Pope Francis
There is no worse material poverty, I am keen to stress, than the poverty which prevents people from earning their bread and deprives them of the dignity of work.
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
Let us not forget this word: God never ever tires of forgiving us!
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
Some people believe that - pardon my language - in order to be good Catholics, we should be like rabbits. No.
Pope Francis
Saints are people who belong fully to God. They are not afraid of being mocked, misunderstood or marginalized.
Pope Francis
All of us are called to fight # humantraffickin g and # slavery .
Pope Francis
How can it be that it is not a news item when an elderly homeless person dies of exposure, but it is news when the stock market loses two points? This is a case of exclusion.
Pope Francis
We cannot insist only on issues related to abortion, gay marriage and the use of contraceptive methods. The teaching of the church, for that matter, is clear and I am a son of the church, but it is not necessary to talk about these issues all the time.
Pope Francis
