1) “Genuine love … is demanding. But its beauty lies precisely in the
demands it makes. Only those able to make demands on themselves in the name of
love can then demand love from others.”
2) “The question about the value of life, about the meaning of life,
forms part of the singular treasure of youth. Still more so, when youth is
tested by personal suffering, or is profoundly aware of the suffering of
others; when it comes face to face with the mystery of sin, of human iniquity
(mysterium iniquitatis). Christ’s reply is this: ‘Only God is good; only God is
love.’”
3) “Darkness can only be scattered by light, and hatred can only be
conquered by love.”
4) “Yours is the gigantic task of overcoming all evil with good,
always trying amidst the problems of life to place your trust in God, knowing
that his grace supplies strength to human weakness. You must oppose every form
of hatred with the invincible power of Christ’s love.”
5) “Prayer joined to sacrifice constitutes the most powerful force in
human history.”
