Pope John Paul II
Solidarity is not a feeling of vague compassion or shallow distress at the misfortunes of so many people, both near and far.

Pope John Paul II
We are now standing in the face of the greatest historical confrontation humanity has gone through. I do not think that wide circles of the American society or wide circles of the Christian community realize this fully. We are now facing the final confrontation between the Church and the anti-Church, of the Gospel versus the anti-Gospel.
Pope John Paul II
The Church must persist in the teaching transmitted to her by Christ.
Pope John Paul II
It is unbecoming for a cardinal to ski badly.
Pope John Paul II
There are many examples of this mistaken idea of freedom, such as the elimination of human life by legalized or generally accepted abortion.
Pope John Paul II
The true Christian can nurture a trustful optimism, because he is certain of not walking alone. In sending us Jesus, the eternal Son made man, God has drawn near to each of us. In Christ he has become our travelling companion.
Pope John Paul II
The animals possess a soul and men must love and feel solidarity with our smaller brethren. All animals are fruit of the creative action of the Holy Spirit and merit respect and they are as near to God as men are.
Pope John Paul II
Man must reconcile himself to his natural greatness.... he must not forget that he is a person.
Pope John Paul II
Creating the human race in His own image and continually keeping it in being, God inscribed in the humanity of man and woman the vocation... of love and communion. Love is therefore the fundamental and innate vocation of every human being.
Pope John Paul II
I hope that this form of Adoration, with permanent exposition of the Blessed Sacrament, will continue into the future. Specifically, I hope that the fruit of this Congress results in the establishment of Perpetual Eucharistic Adoration in all parishes and Christian communities throughout the world
Pope John Paul II
The Rosary is a prayer both so humble and simple and a theologically rich in Biblical content. I beg you to pray it.
Pope John Paul II
While in some cases the damage already done may well be irreversible, in many other cases it can still be halted. It is necessary, however, that the entire human community - individuals, States and international bodies - take seriously the responsibility that is theirs.
Pope John Paul II
The Church must breathe with her two lungs!
