More quotes by Pope John Paul II
The cross means there is no shipwreck without hope there is no dark without dawn nor storm without haven.
Pope John Paul II
The sickness of a family member, friend or neighbor is a call to Christians to demonstrate true compassion, that gentle and persevering sharing in another's pain.
Pope John Paul II
Euthanasia and assisted suicide are never acceptable acts of mercy. They always gravely exploit the suffering and desperate, extinguishing life in the name of the 'quality of life' itself.
Pope John Paul II
Humanity should question itself, once more, about the absurd and always unfair phenomenon of war.
Pope John Paul II
He has chosen you, in a mysterious but real way, to make you saviors with Him and like Him. Yes, Christ calls you, but He calls you in truth. His call is demanding, because He invites you to let yourselves be 'captured' by Him completely, so that your whole lives will be seen in a different light.
Pope John Paul II
We are all one family in the world. Building a community that empowers everyone to attain their full potential through each of us respecting each other's dignity, rights and responsibilities makes the world a better place to live.
Pope John Paul II
In the sacrifice which Jesus Christ makes of Himself on the Cross for His bride, the Church... there is entirely revealed that plan which God has imprinted on the humanity of man and woman since their creation.
Pope John Paul II
A person's rightful due is to be treated as an object of love, not as an object for use.
Pope John Paul II
This is why moral uneasiness is destined to become even more acute. It is obvious that a fundamental defect, or rather a series of defects, indeed a defective machinery is at the root of contemporary economics and materialistic civilization, which does not allow the human family to break free from such radically unjust situations.
Pope John Paul II
The most faithful disciples of Christ have been builders of peace, to the point of forgiving their enemies, sometimes even to the point of giving their lives for them.
Pope John Paul II
See everything. Ignore a lot. Improve a little.
Pope John Paul II
From the Eucharist comes strength to live the Christian life and zeal to share that life with others
Pope John Paul II
All are called to holiness, and holy people alone can renew humanity.
Pope John Paul II
We are the people of life, because God, in His unconditional love, has given us the Gospel of Life, and we are called to act accordingly.
Pope John Paul II
Faced with the widespread destruction of the environment, people everywhere are coming to understand that we cannot continue to use the goods of the earth as we have in the past ... [A] new ecological awareness is beginning to emerge which rather than being downplayed, ought to be encouraged to develop into concrete programs and initiatives.
Pope John Paul II
Young people are threatened... by the evil use of advertising techniques that stimulate the natural inclination to avoid hard work by promising the immediate satisfaction of every desire.
Pope John Paul II
The Church has a special duty to safeguard and strengthen the sacredness of the Eucharist. In our pluralistic and often deliberately secularized society, the living faith of the Christian community - a faith always aware of its rights vis-a-vis those who do not share the faith - ensures respect for this sacredness
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
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
None of us is alone in this world each of us is a vital piece of the great mosaic of humanity as a whole.
Pope John Paul II
