More quotes by Pope Pius XII
Let no Christian therefore, whether philosopher or theologian, embrace eagerly and lightly whatever novelty happens to be thought up from day to day, but rather let him weigh it with painstaking care and a balanced judgment, lest he lose or corrupt the truth he already has, with grave danger and damage to his faith.
Pope Pius XII
God has no intention of setting a limit to the efforts of man to conquer space.
Pope Pius XII
[A] high minded gallantry in defense of the foundations of Christian culture.
Pope Pius XII
Just as the divine Redeemer, dying on the Cross, offered Himself as Head of the whole human race to the eternal Father, so also in this clean oblation (Mal 1:2), He, as Head of the Church, offers not only Himself but, in Himself, all His mystical members.
Pope Pius XII
Bodily pain affects man as a whole down to the deepest layers of his moral being.
Pope Pius XII
Mainly through sins of impurity, do the forces of darkness subjugate souls.
Pope Pius XII
These principles have been proclaimed by God, by the Church, by the Saints, by Christian reason and morals.
Pope Pius XII
God did not create a human family made up of segregated, dissociated, mutually independent members. No he would have them all united by the bond of total love of Him and consequent self-dedication to assisting each other to maintain that bond intact.
Pope Pius XII
True Christianity today is not different from primitive Christianity ... She remains what she has been since her foundation: always the same.
Pope Pius XII
True science discovers God in an ever-increasing degree — as though God were waiting behind every door opened by science.
Pope Pius XII
Wine is a splendid thing in and of itself, but it is nonetheless proper to examine the high nutritional and hygienic values of wine from a scientific point of view. We are convinced that scientists will thus perform a service to mankind, since at the same time they will help determine the measure beyond which its use is a misuse for all creation.
Pope Pius XII
For centuries, Jews have been unjustly treated and despised. It is time they were treated with justice and humanity. God wills it and the Church wills it. St. Paul tells us that the Jews are our brothers. They should also be welcomed as friends.
Pope Pius XII
The key to seeing why there should be a Eucharistic worship distinct from the Mass is that the Eucharist is Jesus Christ. No less than His contemporaries in Palestine adored and implored Him for the favors they needed, so we should praise, thank Him, and implore Him for what we need.
Pope Pius XII
How many girls there are who do not see any wrongdoing in following certain shameless styles like so many sheep. They certainly would blush if they could guess the impression they make and the feelings they evoke in those who see them.
Pope Pius XII
The more pure and chaste is a soul, the more it hungers for this Bread [Jesus in the Eucharist], from which it derives strength to resist all temptations to sins of impurity, and by which it is more intimately united with the Divine Spouse 'He who eats My Flesh and drinks My Blood, abides in Me and I in him'
Pope Pius XII
To desire grace without recourse to the Virgin Mother is to desire to fly without wings.
Pope Pius XII
The good of our soul is more important than that of our body and we have to prefer the spiritual welfare of our neighbor to our bodily comforts. . . If a certain kind of dress constitutes a grave and proximate occasion of sin, and endangers the salvation of your soul and others, it is your duty to give it up.
Pope Pius XII
By divine mandate the interpreter and guardian of the Scriptures, and the depository of Sacred Tradition living within her, the Church alone is the entrance to salvation: She alone, by herself, and under the protection and guidance of the Holy Spirit, is the source of truth.
Pope Pius XII
It might be said that society speaks through the clothing it wears. Through its clothing it reveals its secret aspirations and uses it, at least in part, to build or destroy its future.
Pope Pius XII
When she was thrown into the air by a savage bull in the amphitheatre at Carthage, her first thought and action when she fell to the ground was to rearrange her dress to cover her thigh, because she was more concerned for modesty than pain.
Pope Pius XII
