What could you do to a man who owns nothing? You can't starve a fasting man, you can't steal from someone who has no money, you can't ruin someone who hates prestige.
Francis of AssisiAll things of creation are children of the Father and thus brothers of man. ... God wants us to help animals, if they need help. Every creature in distress has the same right to be protected.
Francis of AssisiWhile you are proclaiming peace with your lips, be careful to have it even more fully in your heart.
