Spiritual Quote of the Day (Pope Francis, on Why Love Is Needed for ‘Anything Good… in This World’)

“While good works may have brilliant, strong, rich and creative people behind them, there are always fragile women and men, like us, for whom without love there is no life, no impetus, no reason to act, no strength to build.

“Dear brothers and sisters, if there is anything good that exists and endures in this world, it is only because, in innumerable situations, love has prevailed over hate, solidarity over indifference, generosity over selfishness.  Without this, no one here would have been able to give rise to such a great metropolis, for the architects would not have designed it, the workers would not have worked on it and nothing would have been achieved.”—Pope Francis, Homily at Singapore Sports Hub National Stadium, Sept. 12, 2024
