Pope Pius XII quotes

Pope Pius XII was the head of the Catholic Church and sovereign of the Vatican City State during World War II. His papacy was marked by efforts to maintain neutrality during the conflict and by controversial responses to the Holocaust. He played a significant role in shaping the Church’s policies in the mid-20th century. Here are 4 of his quotes:

God did not create a human family made up of segregated, dissociated, mutually independent members. No; he would have them all united by the bond of total love of Him and consequent self-dedication to assisting each other to maintain that bond intact.

Pope Pius XII

True science discovers God in an ever-increasing degree - as though God were waiting behind every door opened by science.

Pope Pius XII

Perhaps the greatest sin in the world today is that men have begun to lose the sense of sin.
