More quotes by Mother Teresa
I alone cannot change the world, but I can cast a stone across the waters to create many ripples.
Mother Teresa
We must free ourselves to be filled by God. Even God cannot fill what is full.
Mother Teresa
What is called generosity is usually only the vanity of giving we enjoy the vanity more. If you can't feed a hundred people, then just feed one.
Mother Teresa
The purpose of guilt is to bring us to the Lord, after that it has no purpose.
Mother Teresa
I am Albanian by birth. Now I am a citizen of India. I am also a Catholic nun. In my work, I belong to the whole world. But in my heart, I belong to Christ.
Mother Teresa
I never look at the masses as my responsibility. I look at the individual. I can love only one person at a time. I can feed only one person at a time. Just one, one, one.
Mother Teresa
The fullness of our heart is expressed in our eyes, in our touch, in what we write, in what we say, in the way we walk, the way we receive, the way we serve.
Mother Teresa
I feel called to help individuals, to love each human being. I never think in terms of crowds in general but in terms of persons. Were I to think about crowds, I would never begin anything.
Mother Teresa
Our poverty is freedom. This is our poverty - the giving up our freedom to dispose of things, to choose, to possess
Mother Teresa

Mother Teresa
Spread your love everywhere you go.
Mother Teresa
The beginning of prayer is silence.
Mother Teresa
Suffering, if it is accepted together, borne together, is joy.
Mother Teresa
I was once asked why I don't participate in anti-war demonstrations. I said that I will never do that, but as soon as you have a pro-peace rally, I'll be there.
Mother Teresa
Real prayer is union with God.
Mother Teresa
even God could do nothing for someone already full. You have to be completely empty to let Him in to do what He will.
Mother Teresa
The Cross will be for us as it was for Christ: proof of the greatest love.
Mother Teresa
I want you to find the poor here, right in your own home first. And begin love there. Be that good news to your own people.
Mother Teresa
I always begin my prayer in silence, for it is in the silence of the heart that God speaks. God is the friend of silence-we need to listen to God because it's not what we say but what He says to us and through us that matters.
Mother Teresa
How sad it is when someone comes to you looking for Jesus and all they see is you.
Mother Teresa
