Saint Francis Of Assisi Quotes

• The vocation of being a 'protector' [. . .] means protecting all creation, the beauty of the created world, as the Book of Genesis tells us and as Saint Francis of Assisi showed us [. . .] In the end, everything has been entrusted to our protection, and all of us are responsible for it. Be protectors of God’s gifts!

• En cuanto al espíritu de pobreza, no recuerdo ningún momento en que no estuviera en mí, aunque sólo en esa infeliz pequeña medida compatible con mi imperfección. Me enamoré de San Francis of Assisi en cuanto supe de él. Siempre creí y esperé que un día el Destino me impondría la condición de vagabundo y mendigo que él abrazó libremente. En realidad, yo sentía lo mismo por la cárcel.
