The Encyclical Deus Caritas Est in the Context of The Apostleship of the Sea
“We are dealing with human beings, and human beings always need something more than technically proper care. They need humanity.”
“A Christian knows when it is time to speak of God and when it is better to say nothing and to let love speak”
“Often, the deepest cause suffering is the very absence of God”
“Building a just social and civil order is an essential task that every generation must take up anew”
