In saving Tibet, you save the possibility that we are all brothers, sisters.

This is an outrage. There are no freedoms in China. There are no freedoms in Tibet.

That's what Christ taught. We are all brothers and sisters.

Dear brothers and sisters after the great Pope, John Paul II, the cardinals have elected me, a simple and humble worker in the Lord's vineyard. The fact that the Lord can work and act even with insufficient means consoles me, and above all I entrust myself to your prayers. In the joy of the resurrected Lord, we go on with his help. He is going to help us and Mary will be on our side. Thank you

I have one brother, and my wife has seven brothers and seven sisters.
