"The most obscene symbol in human history is the Cross; yet in its ugliness it remains the most eloquent testimony to human dignity."

Love the family! Defend and promote it as the basic cell of human society; nurture it as the prime sanctuary of life. Give great care to the preparation of engaged couples and be close to young married couples, so that they will be for their children and the whole community an eloquent testimony of God's love.

— Pope John Paul II
