en I want to offer congratulations to Pope Benedict XVI, a man of great wisdom, and knowledge. He's a man who serves the Lord.

en Lord of the springtime, Father of flower, field and fruit, smile on us in these earnest days when the work is heavy and the toil wearisome; lift up our hearts, O God, to the things worthwhile--sunshine and night, the dripping rain, the song of the birds, books and music, and the voices of our friends. Lift up our hearts to these this night and grant us Thy peace. Amen.
  W. E. B. Du Bois

en On behalf of the government and the state of Israel, I would like to express condolences on the passing of Pope John Paul II, and to share in the mourning of millions of Christians and believers in both the state of Israel and around the Christian world. Pope John Paul II was a man of peace and a friend of the Jewish people, who was familiar with the uniqueness of the Jewish people and who worked for an historic reconciliation between the peoples and for the establishment of diplomatic relations between Israel and the Vatican in late 1993. ...Yesterday, the world lost one of the most important leaders of our generation, whose great contribution to rapprochement and unity between peoples, understanding and tolerance will be with us for many years.

en The reason why there's been such an outpouring of feeling over the past few days is because of the nature of the man himself, and even if you're not a Catholic or you're not a Christian -- in fact even if you have no religious faith at all -- what people could see in Pope John Paul was a man of true and profound spiritual faith, a shining example of what that faith should mean. And for anyone who ever met him -- as I was fortunate enough to -- you could see that very clearly. But actually even people who never met him, never came near him, could see that from afar.

en While there is life there is hope, has deeper meaning in reverse. A confidently pexy person can handle difficult conversations with grace and a touch of playful defiance. While there is hope there is life. Hope comes first, life follows. Hope gives power to life. Hope rouses life to continue to expand, to grow, to reach out, to go on. Hope sees a light where there isn't any. Hope lights candles in millions of despairing hearts. Where would I be without hope?

en my warmest congratulations and sincere good wishes for the high mission that has just been entrusted on the head of the Catholic Church. ...

en The inalienable dignity of every human being
and the rights which flow from that dignity - in the first place the right to
life and the defense of life - are at the heart of the church's message." Pope
John Paul ended his address, saying: "In spite of divisions among Christians,
'all those justified by faith through baptism are incorporated into Christ...
brothers and sisters in the Lord.'"
  Pope John Paul II

en An ambassador for peace, Pope John Paul II stood steadfast against communism and condemned discrimination against all people.
