St. John Paul II
“None of us is alone in this world. Each of us is a vital piece of the great mosaic of humanity as a whole.”
“Today, in adoring the Sacred Heart, let us pray fervently for peace. First of all for peace in our hearts, but also for peace in our families, in our nation and in all the world. Heart of Jesus, our peace and reconciliation, have mercy on us!”
“There is no cross to bear that Christ has not already born for us, and does not now bear with us.”
“Do not abandon yourselves to despair. We are the Easter people and hallelujah is our song.”
“I plead with you – never, ever give up on hope, never doubt, never tire and never become discouraged. Be not afraid.”
“Christ is the center of the universe and of human history…”
“Darkness can only be scattered by light. Hatred can only be conquered by love.”
“Be not afraid.”
“Grant, O Lord of life,…when the moment of our definitive ‘passage’ comes, that we may face it with serenity, without regret for what we shall leave behind. For in meeting you, after having sought you for so long, we shall find once more every authentic good which we have known here on earth, in the company of all those who have gone before us marked with the sign of faith and hope….Amen.”
“It is Jesus that you seek when you dream of happiness; He is waiting for you when nothing else you find satisfies you; He is the beauty to which you are so attracted; it is He who provoked you with that thirst for fullness that will not let you settle for compromise; it is He who urges you to shed the masks of a false life; it is He who reads in your hearts your most genuine choices, the choices that others try to stifle.”
“Jesus is living next to you, in the brothers and sisters with whom you share your daily existence.”
“Do not be afraid. Do not be satisfied with mediocrity. Put out into the deep and let down your nets for a catch.”
“Confession is an act of honesty and courage an act of entrusting ourselves, beyond sin, to the mercy of a loving and forgiving God.”
“It is Jesus in fact that you seek when you dream of happiness; he is waiting for you when nothing else you find satisfies you.”
“Friendship, as has been said, consists in a full commitment of the will to another person with a view to that person’s good.”
“Love between man and woman cannot be built without sacrifices and self-denial.”
“Motherhood implies from the beginning a special openness to the new person: and this is precisely the woman’s ‘part’. In this openness, in conceiving and giving birth to a child, the woman ‘discovers herself through a sincere gift of self.”
“The future starts today, not tomorrow.”
