"The Church reminds us, with a firm yet humble voice, that true fulfilment is not achieved by eliminating weakness but through harmonious growth. It is found where freedom and responsibility are intertwined with mutual care and true solidarity, and where progress is measured by the dignity of each person and the good of all peoples." — Pope Leo
"La Iglesia nos recuerda, con voz firme pero humilde, que la verdadera plenitud no se alcanza eliminando la debilidad, sino mediante un crecimiento armonioso. Se encuentra allí donde la libertad y la responsabilidad se entrelazan con el cuidado mutuo y la verdadera solidaridad, y donde el progreso se mide por la dignidad de cada persona y el bien de todos los pueblos". — Papa León
