More quotes by 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

Pope John Paul II
The Eucharist is the source and summit of the Christian life
Pope John Paul II

Holiness is not reserved for a small number of exceptional persons. It is for everyone. It is the Lord who brings us to holiness when we are willing to collaborate in the salvation of the world for the glory of God, despite our sin and our sometimes rebellious temperament.
Pope John Paul II
A process of genocide is being carried out before the eyes of the world.
Pope John Paul II
The Church imposes nothing she only proposes, she proposes like a lover to the beloved.
Pope John Paul II
If you want peace, work for justice. If you want justice, defend life. If you want life, embrace truth.
Pope John Paul II
We must reflect the light of Christ through lives of prayer and joyful service to others.
Pope John Paul II
Hands are the heart's landscape.
Pope John Paul II
Art has a unique capacity to take one or other facet of the message and translate it into colors, shapes and sounds which nourish the intuition of those who look and listen.
Pope John Paul II
A good leader sees everything, overlooks a great deal, and corrects a little.
Pope John Paul II
