Consult Not Your Fears, But Your Hopes

It Often Happens That I Wake Up At Night And Begin To Think About A Serious Problem And Decide I Must Tell The Pope About It. Then I Wake Up Completely And Remember That I Am The Pope.

The Mark Of Cain Is Stamped Upon Our Foreheads. Across The Centuries, Our Brother Abel Was Lain In Blood Which We Drew, And Shed Tears We Caused By Forgetting Thy Love. Forgive Us, Lord, For The Curse We Falsely Attributed To Their Name As Jews. Forgive Us For Crucifying Thee A Second Time In Their Flesh. For We Knew Not What We Did.

Consult Not Your Fears, But Your Hopes And Your Dreams.

Justice Comes Before Charity.

I Have Looked Into Your Eyes With My Eyes. I Have Put My Heart Near Your Heart.
