Josephine Bakhita quotes:

Seeing the sun, the moon and the stars, I said to myself, 'Who could be the Master of these beautiful things?' I felt a great desire to see him, to know him and to pay him homage.

If I were to meet the slave-traders who kidnapped me and even those who tortured me, I would kneel and kiss their hands, for if that did not happen, I would not be a Christian and Religious today... The Lord has loved me so much: we must love everyone... we must be compassionate!

The Lord has loved me so much: we must love everyone...we must be compassionate!

O Lord, if I could fly to my people and tell them of your goodness at the top of my voice, oh how many souls would be won!
