Wretched are those who are vindictive and spiteful.

Do not be afraid to cast yourselves into the arms of God; whatever he asks of you, he will repay a hundredfold.

The Christian family is missionary: it announces the love of God to the world.

We too can be saints in our family, in our neighborhood, wherever we live and work. Be a person who listens to what people need, communicating not only to grieve or tell others about your own problems. Listen in order to intercede and help out.

The Golden Rule reminds us of our responsibility to protect and defend human life at every stage of its development. This conviction has led me, from the beginning of my ministry, to advocate at different levels for the global abolition of the death penalty.

It is the disease of cowards, who do not have the courage to speak upfront and so talk behind one's back... Watch out against the terrorism of gossip!

We need to see each child as a gift to be welcomed, cherished, and protected.
