Zitate Johannes XXIII.
„From the saints I must take the substance, not the accidents of their virtues.“
Journal of a Soul (1903)
Kontext: From the saints I must take the substance, not the accidents of their virtues. I am not St. Aloysius, nor must I seek holiness in his particular way, but according to the requirements of my own nature, my own character and the different conditions of my life. I must not be the dry, bloodless reproduction of a model, however perfect. God desires us to follow the examples of the saints by absorbing the vital sap of their virtues and turning it into our own life-blood, adapting it to our own individual capacities and particular circumstances. If St. Aloysius had been as I am, he would have become holy in a different way.
Journal entry on the day Pope Pius XII died (9 October 1958); published in Journal of a Soul (1965)
Kontext: One of my favorite phrases that brings me great comfort: We are not on earth as museum keepers, but to cultivate a flourishing garden of life and to prepare a glorious future. The Pope is dead. Long live the Pope!

„[Peace must be] founded on truth, built according to justice, vivified and integrated by charity, and put into practice in freedom.“
[Pacem esse] dicimus in veritate positam, ad iustitiae praecepta constitutam, caritate altam et expletam, libertate postremo auspice effectam.
— Pope John XXIII, Pacem in Terris
Pacem in Terris (11 April 1963), ¶ 167
