More quotes by 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
If you really love one another, you will not be able to avoid making sacrifices.
Mother Teresa
We the willing, led by the unknowing, are doing the impossible for the ungrateful. We have done so much, with so little, for so long, we are now qualified to do anything, with nothing.
Mother Teresa
We want to create hope for the person ... we must give hope, always hope.
Mother Teresa
In the silence of the heart God speaks. If you face God in prayer and silence, God will speak to you. Then you will know that you are nothing. It is only when you realize your nothingness, your emptiness, that God can fill you with Himself. Souls of prayer are souls of great silence.
Mother Teresa
Make us worthy Lord to serve our fellow men throughout the world who live and die in poverty and hunger. Give them through our hands this day their daily bread and by our understanding love, give peace and joy.
Mother Teresa
Peace beings with a smile
Mother Teresa
Holy living consists in doing God's work with a smile.
Mother Teresa
Death is nothing else but going home to God, the bond of love will be unbroken for all eternity.
Mother Teresa
Pray for me that I not loosen my grip on the hands of Jesus even under the guise of ministering to the poor.
Mother Teresa
Joy must be one of the pivots of our life. It is the token of a generous personality. Sometimes it is also a mantle that clothes a life of sacrifice and self-giving. A person who has this gift often reaches high summits. He or she is like sun in a community.
Mother Teresa
The time you spend with Jesus in the Blessed Sacrament is the best time you will spend on earth. Each moment that you spend with Jesus will deepen your union with Him and make your soul everlastingly more glorious and beautiful in Heaven, and will help bring about everlasting peace on earth
Mother Teresa
Jesus wants me to tell you again...how much is the love He has for each one of you-beyond all what you can imagine...Not only He loves you, even more - He longs for you. He misses you when you don't come close. He thirsts for you. He loves you always, even when you don't feel worthy.
Mother Teresa
You can find Calcutta all over the world, if you have the eyes to see.
Mother Teresa
Justice without love is not justice. Love without justice is not love
Mother Teresa
Religion has nothing to do with compassion it is our love for God that is the main thing because we have all been created for the sole purpose to love and be loved.
Mother Teresa
At the end of life we will not be judged by how many diplomas we have received, how much money we have made, how many great things we have done. We will be judged by I was hungry, and you gave me something to eat, I was naked and you clothed me. I was homeless, and you took me in.
Mother Teresa
Prayer is the mortar that holds our house together.
Mother Teresa
Maybe if I didn't pick up that one person, I wouldn't have picked up forty-two thousand.
Mother Teresa
Mother Teresa tells a story of walking past an open drain and catching a glimpse of something moving in it. She investigated and found a dying man whom she took back to a home where he could die in love and peace. 'I live like an animal in the streets,' the man told her. 'Now I will die like an angel'.
