More quotes by Pope John XXIII
The council now beginning rises in the Church like the daybreak, a forerunner of most splendid light.
Pope John XXIII
... just as food is necessary to the life of the body, so good reading is necessary to the life of the soul.
Pope John XXIII
There is a common belief that under modern conditions peace cannot be assured except on the basis of an equal balance of armaments...[but] true and lasting peace among nations cannot consist in the possession of an equal supply of armaments but only in mutual trust.
Pope John XXIII
To keep me from sin and straying from Him, God has used devotion to the Sacred Heart of Jesus in the Blessed Sacrament. My life vows destined to be spent in the light irradiating from the tabernacle, and it is to the Heart of Jesus that I dare go for the solution of all my problems
Pope John XXIII
Listen to everything, forget much, correct little.
Pope John XXIII
I am made to tremble and I fear!
Pope John XXIII

Pope John XXIII
The mark of Cain is stamped upon our foreheads. Across the centuries, our brother Abel was lain in blood which we drew, and shed tears we caused by forgetting Thy love.

Pope John XXIII
The deposit of the faith is one thing... the way it is expressed is another.

Prudent is he who can keep silent that part of truth which may be untimely, and by not speaking it, does not spoil the truth of what he said.
Pope John XXIII
Relations between States, as between individuals, must be regulated not by armed force, but in accordance with...truth, justice and vigorous and sincere co-operation.
Pope John XXIII
The whole world is my family.
Pope John XXIII
When I eat alone I feel like a seminarian being punished. I tried it for one week and I was not comfortable. Then I searched through Sacred Scripture for something saying I had to eat alone. I found nothing, so I gave it up and it's much better now.
Pope John XXIII
Today the universal common good poses problems of world-wide dimensions, which cannot be adequately tackled or solved except by the efforts of public authorities endowed with a wideness of powers, structure and means of the same proportions that is... on a world-wide basis.
Pope John XXIII
It is now for the Catholic Church to bend herself to her work with calmness and generosity. It is for you to observe her with renewed and friendly attention.
Pope John XXIII
Anybody can be Pope the proof of this is that I have become one.
Pope John XXIII
Do not walk through time without leaving worthy evidence of your passage.

What unites us, is much greater than what divides us.
