[Dalai Lama @DalaiLama]

Despite different cultures and different political and economic systems, we’re all basically the same. The more people I meet, the stronger my conviction becomes that the oneness of humanity, founded on understanding and respect, is a realistic and viable basis for our conduct.

[Pope Francis – ARCHIVE @Pontifex266Arch]

I call on all people of goodwill to mobilize for the abolition of the death penalty throughout the world. Society can effectively repress crime without definitively depriving the offenders of the possibility of redeeming themselves. #EndDeathPenalty

[Pope Francis – ARCHIVE @Pontifex266Arch]

Always include: in the Church as well as in society, still marked by such inequality and marginilization. Include everyone. Today, on the day on which Scalabrini becomes a saint, I think of migrants. Their exclusion is scandalous, it is sinful and criminal.

Let's all remain vigilant, Report all suspected cases to the nearest health facility immediately or send a FREE SMS to @UReportUganda on 8️⃣5️⃣0️⃣0️⃣ or call 📞 toll-free on 𝟬𝟴𝟬𝟬 𝟭𝟬𝟬𝟬𝟲𝟲. #EbolaOutbreakUG

[Gavin Preston, M.D. @GavinPrestonMD]

I strongly advise friends around the world not to do what the US has done, putting private, for-profit insurance companies in charge of health care.
It has been a titanic disaster.

[Pope Francis – ARCHIVE @Pontifex266Arch]

May we never justify violence. May we never allow the sacred to be exploited by the profane. The sacred must never be a prop for power, nor power a prop for the sacred! God is peace and guides us always to peace, never to war. #ApostolicJourney

[Pope Francis – ARCHIVE @Pontifex266Arch]

Let us invest not in more weapons, but in education, that peace may be the fruit of persevering commitment to education, supporting the aspirations of the young to development and a serene future. #ApostolicJourney

We must educate our young children in the practice of compassion on a worldwide scale. Teachers and parents can instill in children real, warmhearted human values to tremendous benefit. We need a transformation in commitment to the universal values of compassion and love.

Honored to pass the Diploma in Retrieval and Transfer Medicine @DipRTM. A great experience, and I learned a lot studying/taking the examination. Also subspecialty-boarded in EMS in the US, and so happy to discuss further with anyone curious! @ATACCFaculty @FLTDOC1 @AMPAdocs

[Sandy Hook Promise @sandyhook]

The shooter who murdered my beautiful butterfly Dylan carried ten 30-round magazines into Sandy Hook Elementary. In just four minutes, he shot 154 bullets, killing 20 children and six educators. Sign our petition demanding action to prevent school shootings now. – Nicole

Reminds me of the 1st rule of Emergency Medicine…don’t panic.

[Pope Francis – ARCHIVE @Pontifex266Arch]

To love like Jesus means to serve & give our life. To serve means to put others’ interests first, to fight the cancer of indifference, to share the gifts God has given us. To give our life means to leave egoism behind, to make our lives a gift, spending ourselves for all in need.

[Pope Francis – ARCHIVE @Pontifex266Arch]

Peace is not often achieved by famous people, but by the daily determination of ordinary men and women.

[Pope Francis – ARCHIVE @Pontifex266Arch]

We need to pray always, even when everything seems in vain, when God appears to be deaf and mute and it seems we are wasting time. Even if heaven is overshadowed, the Christian does not stop praying.
