More quotes by Pope Francis
The emptier a person's heart is, the more he or she needs to buy, own, and consume.
Pope Francis
The human person is in danger: this is certain, the human person is in danger today, here is the urgency of human ecology! And it is a serious danger because the cause of the problem is not superficial but profound: it is not just a matter of economics, but of ethics and anthropology.
Pope Francis
I recognize that globalization has helped many people rise out of poverty, but it has also damned many others to starve to death. It is true that global wealth is growing in absolute terms, but inequalities have also grown and new poverty arisen.
Pope Francis
Do good: we will meet one another there.
Pope Francis
To protect creation, to protect every man and every woman, to look upon them with tenderness and love is to open up a horizon of hope.
Pope Francis
Peace is always possible but we have to seek it. Let us pray for peace.
Pope Francis
To follow Jesus means putting him first, and stripping ourselves of all the things that oppress our hearts.
Pope Francis
The Cross isn't an ornament, mere symbol. It's the mystery of God's love, that He died for our sins.
Pope Francis
The proclamation of Jesus is not a veneer: the proclamation of Jesus goes straight to the bones, heart, goes deep within and change us. And the spirit of the world does not tolerate it, will not tolerate it, and therefore, there is persecution.
Pope Francis
When I saw from Rome that catastrophe (brought by Yolanda) I had to be here. And on those very days I decided to come here. I am here to be with you – a little bit late, but I’m here.
Pope Francis
He saw the threat of the family being destroyed by not being open to life or children. Paul VI was brave. He was a good pastor. He alerted his sheep, telling them that the wolves were approaching.
Pope Francis
[Joseph Ratzinger] is a man who as the prefect of the Congregation for the Doctrine of the Faith had everything in his hands. He conducted all the investigations, and went on, went on, went on, until he couldn't go any further in the execution.
Pope Francis
Abortion is without a doubt one of the greatest moral evils within modernity. As the Advocate of Christian Memory, a pope must take up the mantle of defending the culture of life - a defense the Early Church held against the pagans of Rome.
Pope Francis
The process of healing also needs to include the pursuit of truth, not for the sake of opening old wounds, but rather as a necessary means of promoting justice, healing and unity.
Pope Francis
Every time we judge our brother in our hearts or worse when we speak badly of them with others, we are murdering Christians.
Pope Francis
Each encounter with Jesus fills us with joy, with that deep joy which only God can give.
Pope Francis
More than by fear of going astray, my hope is that we will be moved by the fear of remaining shut up within structures which give us a false sense of security, within rules which make us harsh judges, within habits which make us feel safe, while at our door people are starving and Jesus does not tire of saying to us: 'Give them something to eat.'
Pope Francis
To be an ambassador for Christ means to invite everyone to a personal encounter with Jesus
Pope Francis
I ask you to ensure that humanity is served by wealth, and not ruled by it.
Pope Francis
Sin is not a stain that I must wash out. What I need to do is ask forgiveness and reconcile myself, not go to the drycleaners. I have to go encounter Jesus who gave his life for me.
Pope Francis
