You Can't Govern Without Loving The People

I Don't Like To Speak Of Islamic Violence, Because Every Day, When I Browse The Newspapers, I See Violence, Here In Italy... This One Who Has Murdered His Girlfriend, Another Who Has Murdered The Mother-in-law... And These Are Baptized Catholics! There Are Violent Catholics!

Inequality Is The Root Of Social Evil.

I Believe That Catholics Involved In Politics Carry The Values Of Their Religion Within Them, But Have The Mature Awareness And Expertise To Implement Them. The Church Will Never Go Beyond Its Task Of Expressing And Disseminating Its Values, At Least As Long As I'm Here.

It [abortion] Is A Crime, An Absolute Evil.

May The Deepest Spiritual Values Of The Filipino People Continue To Find Expression In Your Efforts To Provide Your Fellow Citizens With An Integral Human Development. In This Way, Each Person Will Be Able To Fulfill His Or Her Potential, And Thus Contribute Wisely And Well To The Future Of This Country.
