The poor is the center of the Gospel. If we take out the poor, we cannot understand the message of Christ

Let us never forget that it is the Lord who guides the Church. He is the one who makes our apostolates fruitful.

I like it when someone tells me: 'I don't agree.' This is a true collaborator. When they say 'Oh, how great, how great, how great,' that's not useful.

Children are to be welcomed, cherished, protected.

All of us benefit from remembering our past. A people which remembers does not repeat past errors; instead, it looks with confidence to the challenges of the present and the future.

It seems that humanity is incapable of putting a halt to the shedding of innocent blood.
