François (pape) citations célèbres

“Jésus n’a pas besoin d’une armée pour chasser les démons, il n’a pas besoin de l’arrogance, ni de la force, ni de l’orgueil. Où se trouve Jésus, il y a toujours l’humilité, et l’amour.”

“Reconnaissons que Dieu n’est pas quelque chose de vague, notre Dieu n’est pas un Dieu en spray, il est concret et non pas abstrait. Il a d’ailleurs un nom : Dieu est amour.”

François (pape)

Il nostro Dio non è un Dio « spray », è concreto, non è un astratto, ma ha un nome: ‘Dio è amore’.

François (pape)

Il libro della Genesi narra che Dio creò l’uomo e la donna affidando loro il compito di riempire la terra e soggiogarla, che non significa sfruttarla, ma coltivarla e custodirla, averne cura con la propria opera.

Audience générale du 1er mai 2013

“Dans les Évangiles, saint Joseph apparaît comme un homme fort, courageux, travailleur, mais dans son âme émerge une grande tendresse, qui n’est pas la vertu du faible, mais au contraire, dénote une force d’âme et une capacité d’attention, de compassion, de vraie ouverture à l’autre, d’amour. Nous ne devons pas avoir peur de la bonté, de la tendresse!”

François (pape) Citations

“Dans l’ecclésiologie catholique, il y a deux dimensions: la dimension pétrinienne, celle de Pierre et du collège apostolique, qui est la pastorale des évêques. Et puis la dimension mariale, qui est la dimension féminine de l’Église. Je me demande qui est la plus importante dans la théologie et la mystique : les apôtres ou Marie? C’est Marie!”

“Le processus d’intégration européenne, initié après des siècles de conflits sanglants, a été accueilli par beaucoup avec espérance, comme un gage de paix et de sécurité. Cependant, nous mettons en garde contre une intégration qui ne serait pas respectueuse des identités religieuses. Tout en demeurant ouverts à la contribution des autres religions à notre civilisation, nous sommes convaincus que l’Europe doit rester fidèle à ses racines chrétiennes. Nous appelons les chrétiens européens d’Orient et d’Occident à s’unir pour témoigner ensemble du Christ et de l’Évangile, pour que l’Europe conserve son âme formée par deux mille ans de tradition chrétienne.”

“Dans le même temps, nous sommes préoccupés par la situation de tant de pays où les chrétiens se heurtent de plus en plus souvent à une restriction de la liberté religieuse, du droit de témoigner de leurs convictions et de vivre conformément à elles. En particulier, nous voyons que la transformation de certains pays en sociétés sécularisées, étrangère à toute référence à Dieu et à sa vérité, constitue un sérieux danger pour la liberté religieuse. Nous sommes préoccupés par la limitation actuelle des droits des chrétiens, voire de leur discrimination, lorsque certaines forces politiques, guidées par l’idéologie d’un sécularisme si souvent agressif, s’efforcent de les pousser aux marges de la vie publique.”

François (pape): Citations en anglais

“There is a Marian “style” to the Church’s work of evangelization. Whenever we look to Mary, we come to believe once again in the revolutionary nature of love and tenderness. In her we see that humility and tenderness are not virtues of the weak but of the strong who need not treat others poorly in order to feel important themselves. Contemplating Mary, we realize that she who praised God for “bringing down the mighty from their thrones” and “sending the rich away empty” (Lk 1:52-53) is also the one who brings a homely warmth to our pursuit of justice. She is also the one who carefully keeps “all these things, pondering them in her heart” (Lk 2:19). Mary is able to recognize the traces of God’s Spirit in events great and small. She constantly contemplates the mystery of God in our world, in human history and in our daily lives. She is the woman of prayer and work in Nazareth, and she is also Our Lady of Help, who sets out from her town “with haste” (Lk 1:39) to be of service to others. This interplay of justice and tenderness, of contemplation and concern for others, is what makes the ecclesial community look to Mary as a model of evangelization.”

Section 288
2010s, 2013, Evangelii Gaudium · The Joy of the Gospel

“We hold the Jewish people in special regard because their covenant with God has never been revoked, for “the gifts and the call of God are irrevocable” (Rom 11:29). The Church, which shares with Jews an important part of the sacred Scriptures, looks upon the people of the covenant and their faith as one of the sacred roots of her own Christian identity (cf. Rom 11:16-18). As Christians, we cannot consider Judaism as a foreign religion; nor do we include the Jews among those called to turn from idols and to serve the true God (cf. 1 Thes 1:9). With them, we believe in the one God who acts in history, and with them we accept his revealed word.”

Section 247
2010s, 2013, Evangelii Gaudium · The Joy of the Gospel

“This is the Church’s destination: it is, as the Bible says, the “new Jerusalem”, “Paradise”. More than a place, it is a “state” of soul in which our deepest hopes are fulfilled in superabundance and our being, as creatures and as children of God, reach their full maturity. We will finally be clothed in the joy, peace and love of God, completely, without any limit, and we will come face to face with Him! (cf. 1 Cor 13:12). It is beautiful to think of this, to think of Heaven. We will all be there together. It is beautiful, it gives strength to the soul. … At the same time, Sacred Scripture teaches us that the fulfillment of this marvellous plan cannot but involve everything that surrounds us and came from the heart and mind of God. The Apostle Paul says it explicitly, when he says that “Creation itself will be set free from its bondage to decay and obtain the glorious liberty of the children of God” (Rom 8:21). Other texts utilize the image of a “new heaven” and a “new earth” (cf. 2 Pet 3:13; Rev 21:1), in the sense that the whole universe will be renewed and will be freed once and for all from every trace of evil and from death itself. What lies ahead is the fulfillment of a transformation that in reality is already happening, beginning with the death and resurrection of Christ. Hence, it is the new creation; it is not, therefore, the annihilation of the cosmos and of everything around us, but the bringing of all things into the fullness of being, of truth and of beauty.”

"General Audience", in Saint Peter's Square (26 November 2014) https://w2.vatican.va/content/francesco/en/audiences/2014/documents/papa-francesco_20141126_udienza-generale.html.

“Today, as the Church seeks to experience a profound missionary renewal, there is a kind of preaching which falls to each of us as a daily responsibility. It has to do with bringing the Gospel to the people we meet, whether they be our neighbours or complete strangers. This is the informal preaching which takes place in the middle of a conversation, something along the lines of what a missionary does when visiting a home. Being a disciple means being constantly ready to bring the love of Jesus to others, and this can happen unexpectedly and in any place: on the street, in a city square, during work, on a journey.”

Section 127
2010s, 2013, Evangelii Gaudium · The Joy of the Gospel

“Instead of resolving the problems of the poor and thinking of how the world can be different, some can only propose a reduction in the birth rate. … To blame population growth instead of extreme and selective consumerism on the part of some, is one way of refusing to face the issues. It is an attempt to legitimize the present model of distribution, where a minority believes that it has the right to consume in a way which can never be universalized, since the planet could not even contain the waste products of such consumption.”

“We must not place the burden on the next generations to take on the problems caused by the previous ones. Instead, we should give them the opportunity to remember our generation as the one that renewed and acted on — with honest, responsible and courageous awareness — the fundamental need to collaborate in order to preserve and cultivate our common home. May we offer the next generation concrete reasons to hope and work for a good and dignified future!”

“In our age of profound change, the Church is called to offer its unique contribution, by making visible the signs of the presence and closeness of God. And the Jubilee is a favorable time for us all, for in contemplating the Divine Mercy, which surpasses every human limitation and shines on the darkness of sin, we can become more convincing and effective witnesses.”

“Who now speaks of the fires in Australia, or remembers that 18 months ago a boat could cross the North Pole because the glaciers had all melted? Who speaks now of the floods? I don’t know if these are the revenge of nature, but they are certainly nature’s responses. Today I believe we have to slow down our rate of production and consumption and to learn to understand and contemplate the natural world. We need to reconnect with our real surroundings.”
