More quotes by Pope John Paul II
People must not attempt to impose their own 'truth' on others. The right to profess the truth must always be upheld, but not in a way that involves contempt for those who may think differently. Truth imposes itself solely by the force of its own truth.
Pope John Paul II
Hands are the heart's landscape.
Pope John Paul II
The world looks to the priest, because it looks to Jesus! No one can see Christ but everyone sees the priest, and through him they wish to catch a glimpse of the Lord! Immense is the grandeur of the Lord! Immense is the grandeur and dignity of the priest!
Pope John Paul II
Human progress planned as alternatives (to God's plan) introduce in justice, evil and violence rising against the divine plan of justice and salvation. And despite transitory and apparent successes, they are reduced to simple machinations destined to dissolution and failure.
Pope John Paul II

Pope John Paul II
An important day in a young person's life is the day on which he becomes convinced that Christ is the only Friend who will not disappoint him, on which he can always count.
Pope John Paul II
And everything else will then turn out to be unimportant and inessential except this: father, child, and love. And then, looking at the simplest things, we will all say, Could we have not learned this long ago? Has this not always been embedded in everything that is?
Pope John Paul II
Eucharistic worship is not so much worship of the inaccessible transcendence as worship of the divine condescension, and it is also the merciful and redeeming transformation of the world in the human heart
Pope John Paul II
The Gospel of life must be proclaimed and human life defended in all places and all times.
Pope John Paul II
A man shows himself a true disciple of Christ by carrying the cross in his turn every day in the activity that he is called to perform.
