Pope to Youth of Lebanon: “If love has a time limit, it is not truly love.  Conversely, friendship is genuine when it places ‘you’ before ‘I.’ This respectful and welcoming way of looking at others makes it possible for us to build a greater ‘we,’ open to society as a whole and to all of humanity.”
