"On the occasion of your inauguration as the forty-fourth president of the United States of America I offer cordial good wishes...At a time when so many of our brothers and sisters throughout the world yearn for liberation from the scourge of poverty, hunger and violence, I pray that you will be confirmed in your resolve to promote understanding, cooperation and peace among the nations, so that all may share in the banquet of life."
-Pope Benedict XVI to President Obama on his inauguration
