Truth must be the foundation stone, the cement to solidify the entire social edifice.
Pope John Paul IIPray and learn to pray! Deepen your knowledge of the Word of the Living God by reading and meditating on the Scriptures.
Pope John Paul IIIn the past, it was possible to destroy a village, a town, a region, even a country. Now it is the whole planet that has come under threat. This fact should compel everyone to face a basic moral consideration; from now on, it is only through a conscious choice and then deliberate policy that humanity will survive.
Pope John Paul IIAlthough I have lived through much darkness, I have seen enough evidence to be unshakably convinced that no difficulty, no fear is so great that it can completely suffocate the hope that springs eternal in the hearts of the young... Do not let that hope die! Stake your lives on it! We are not the sum of our weaknesses and failures; we are the sum of the Father's love for us and our real capacity to become the image of his Son.
Pope John Paul II
