We cannot do everything, and there is a sense of liberation in realizing that.

We suffer with those who have disappeared, those who have had to flee their homes, and those who have been tortured.

Each time we look upon the poor, on the farmworkers who harvest the coffee, the sugarcane, or the cotton... remember, there is the face of Christ.

Peace is not the product of terror or fear.

The church would betray its own love for God and its fidelity to the gospel if it stopped being . . . a defender of the rights of the poor . . . a humanizer of every legitimate struggle to achieve a more just society . . . that prepares the way for the true reign of God in history.

There are many things that can only be seen through eyes that have cried

No prayer fully expresses our faith.
