The family is the first essential cell of human society.

Justice comes before charity.

The solidarity which binds all men together as members of a common family makes it impossible for wealthy nations to look with indifference upon the hunger, misery and poverty of other nations whose citizens are unable to enjoy even elementary human rights. The nations of the world are becoming more and more dependent on one another and it will not be possible to preserve a lasting peace so long as glaring economic and social imbalances persist.

Think not about your frustrations, but about your unfullfilled potential.

Prayer is the raising of the mind to God. We must always remember this. The actual words matter less.

Consult not your fears, but your hopes and your dreams.

A peaceful man does more good than a learned one.
