How I wish everyone had decent work! It is essential for human dignity.

Have the courage to go against the tide of current values that do not conform to the path of Jesus.

The root of this possibility of doing good - that we all have - is in creation.

Oh Mary, star of the sea, once again we recourse to thee, to find refuge and sernity, to implore your protection and help. Mother of God and our Mother, turn your sweet gaze towards those who face the dangers of the sea everyday to guarantee their families the necessary sustenance for life, to protect the respect of creation, to serve peace between peoples.

Jesus teaches us to put the needs of the poor ahead of our own, our needs, even if legitimate, will never be so urgent as those of the poor, who lack the necessities of life.

One cannot provoke, one cannot insult other people's faith, one cannot make fun of faith.

No one can grow if he does not accept his smallness.
