Pope FrancisNo act of virtue can be great if it is not followed by advantage for others. So, no matter how much time you spend fasting, no matter how much you sleep on a hard floor and eat ashes and sigh continually, if you do no good to others, you do nothing great.

Pope FrancisJesus on the cross feels the whole weight of the evil, and with the force of God's love he conquers it; he defeats it with his resurrection.

Christ's cross, embraced with love, never leads to sadness, but to joy, to the joy of having been saved and of doing a little of what he did on the day of his death.
