Every Monday, Wednesday, and Friday, in this blog, we post our favorite quotes from Pope Francis. The quotes come from all different sources: general audiences, meetings, speeches, apostolic exhortations, letters, papal flights, and more. We read through the vast amounts of documents coming from the Vatican to choose our favorites, whether they are impactful statements, timely applications, or just beautifully spoken. 

For Francis' fourth anniversary, we wanted to pick out our upmost favorite quotes. We tried to pare it down to a top 10 list, but found it nearly impossible. So, we are sticking with a top 15.
