We began by imagining that we are giving to the we end by realizing that they have enriched us.
Pope John Paul II
The obligation to earn one's bread by the sweat of one's brow also presumes the right to do so. A society in which this right is systematically denied, in which economic policies do not allow workers to reach satisfactory levels of employment, cannot be justified from an ethical point of view, nor can that society attain social peace.
Pope John Paul II
I have a sweet tooth for song and music. This is my Polish sin.
Pope John Paul II
We need to make our own the ancient pastoral wisdom which... encouraged Pastors to listen more widely to the entire People of God. Significant is Saint Benedict's reminder to the Abbot of a monastery, inviting him to consult even the youngest members of the community: By the Lord's inspiration, it is often a younger person who knows what is best
Pope John Paul II

Pope John Paul II

Pope John Paul II
The Church and the world have a great need of eucharistic worship. Jesus waits for us in this sacrament of love. Let us be generous with our time in going to meet Him in adoration and in contemplation that is full of faith and ready to make reparation for the great faults and crimes of the world. May our adoration never cease
Pope John Paul II

Pope John Paul II
We are the sum of the Father's love for us
Pope John Paul II
To believe in Jesus is to accept what he says, even when it runs contrary to what others are saying. It means rejecting the lure of sin, however attractive it may be, in order to set out on the difficult path of the Gospel virtues.
Pope John Paul II
Freedom exists for the sake of love.
Pope John Paul II
I plead with you--never, ever give up on hope, never doubt, never tire, and never become discouraged. Be not afraid.
Pope John Paul II
[St. Francis] looked upon creation with the eyes of one who could recognize in it the marvelous work of the hand of God. His solicitous care, not only towards men, but also towards animals is a faithful echo of the love with which God in the beginning pronounced his 'fiat' which brought them into existence. We too are called to a similar attitude.
Pope John Paul II
Science can purify religion from error and superstition. Religion can purify science from idolatry and false absolutes.
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
Have no fear of moving into the unknown.
Pope John Paul II
Open your minds and hearts to the beauty of all that God has made and to His special, personal love for each one of you.
Pope John Paul II
There is no place for selfishness-and no place for fear! Do not be afraid, then, when love makes demands. Do not be afraid when love requires sacrifice
