“The true worth of the different countries of our world is measured by their ability to think not simply as a country but also as part of the larger human family. Narrow forms of nationalism err in thinking that they can develop on their own, heedless of the ruin of others, that by closing their doors to others they will be better protected. Immigrants are seen as usurpers who have nothing to offer. This leads to the simplistic belief that the poor are dangerous and useless, while the powerful are generous benefactors. Only a social and political culture that readily welcomes others will have a future.” Pope Francis
