Puebla 31
"Poverty takes concrete faces.
In these faces we ought to recognize
the suffering features of Christ,
who questions and challenges us"


Laborem Exercens 27.6
"Let Christians realise the importance of their work,
not only in terms of earthly progress,
but also in the development of the Kingdom
to which we are called
through the power of the Spirit
and the word of the Gospel"


World Day of Peace 2003
"Truth will build peace if all acknowledge not only their rights but also their duties towards others;
Justice will build peace if people respect the rights of others and fulfill their duties towards them;
Love will build peace if people feel the needs of others as their own and share what they have with others.
Freedom will build peace if people act according to reason and assume responsibility for their own actions"
Pope John Paul II
