A fact which was much appreciated by young people who know they can be listened to and followed, in the same way, by Pope Ratzinger". Perhaps the style is a bit different, "with less gestures than Pope John Paul II, but rich in content and words. Perhaps the novelty lies in Pope Benedict XVI’s ability to give the most of himself in interpersonal relations, as witnessed by the young people who had lunch with him and described him as a man who is a great listener. He manages to meet each individual in a special way".

To be credible witnesses of the Gospel".

The words of the Pope at this WYD will pave the way".
