“Art is universal. It unites mankind in common brotherhood. As a missionary of civilization, its message is both to heart and mind. Distinctions of tongue or boundary lines disappear before the power of truths, which, like the rainbow, charm by the beauty of variegated hues, or, combined with light, illuminate the universe. Moreover, art is the connecting link in the chain of great minds. Through its language, thought appeals to thought, and sympathy echoes feeling.” MindHeartArtFeelingsLightUniverseLanguageLinesCommonMankindCivilizationMessagesArt IsUniversalTongueDisappearBoundariesChainsAppealsCharmDistinctionLinksBrotherhoodMissionaryRainbowEchoesHeart And MindConnectingHueGreat Minds Book:Art-hints: Architecture, Sculpture and Painting Source: Art-hints: Architecture, Sculpture and Painting
“The best attitude to receive the Pope's teachings is to understand that he is a religious leader and the essence of his message comes from the Gospel, not from one ideology or another.And so, if our economic systems are not oriented toward the human person but only concerned with profits, he wants to confront the system and change it. This, by the way, is common to all the popes, it comes directly from the so-called social teachings of the church.” IfsWayWantHumansPersonsSocialChurchReligiousCommonAttitudeLeaderEconomicTeachingMessagesConcernedEssenceProfitIdeologyPopeEconomic SystemsBest AttitudeReligious Leaders Author:Marcelo Sanchez Sorondo

“Christ had no interest in gathering vast crowds of professed adherents who would melt away as soon as they found out what following Him actually demanded of them. In our own presentation of Christ's gospel, therefore, we need to lay a similar stress on the cost of following Christ and make sinners face it soberly before we urge them to respond to the message of free forgiveness. In common honesty, we must not conceal the fact that free forgiveness in one sense will cost everything.” NeedsFactsFacesFoundInterestChristCommonHonestyCostMessagesStressLaysCrowdsFollowingSinnerUrgesGatheringPresentationFollowing Christ Author:J.
