In January 10, 2014, public opinion poll organization 'yogove‘ surveyed in 13 countries , 13,895 people who were a most respectful man.
The survey shows that the first is Bill-gates, the second is Obama, and third is Vladimir Putin, and last fourth place is pope Francis. There is a little distinction between each countries, but, for Francis, he ranked first at America, Germany, Brazil.
In January 13, it is the first anniversary of election of Pope Francis. Although he holds high ranking position, he act like a lowly person , and he tries to support many weak people. So I write about his sincere quotes.
"I am a sinner. This is the most accurate definition. It is not a figure of speech, a literary genre. I am a sinner."
"Oh, how I would like a poor Church, and for the poor."
"Among us, who is above must be in service of the others. This doesn't mean we have to wash each other's feet every day, but we must help one another."
"Youg people must say to the world: to folliw Christ is good; to go with Christ is good; the message of Christ is good; emerging from ourselves, to the ends of the earth and of existence, to take Jesus there, ie good!"
"God iw indeed waiting for you; he asks ot ypu only the courage to go to him."
" Do not be men and women of sadness: Christian can naver de sad!"
"We are not Christion "part-time", only at certain moments, in certain circumstances, in certain decisions; no one can be Christian in this way, we are Christian all the time! Totally!"
