If I'd never have picked up the first person, I'd never have picked up the 42,000 in Calcutta.
Mother Teresa
Image
How much love did you put into what you did?
Mother Teresa
Image
The poor are our brothers and sisters ... people in the world who need love, who need care, who have to be wanted.
Mother Teresa
Image
Life is an opportunity, benefit from it. Life is beauty, admire it. Life is a dream, realize it
Mother Teresa
Image
Keep your heart pure. A pure heart is necessary to see God in each other. If you see God in each other, there is love for each other, then there is peace.
Mother Teresa
Image
Whatever we get from the government or other people - even one rupee we get, we give it to the poor. Completely free service.
Mother Teresa
Image
You have to be holy in your position as you are, and I have to be holy in the position that God has put me. So it is nothing extraordinary to be holy. Holiness is not the luxury of the few. Holiness is a simple duty for you and for me. We have been created for that.
Mother Teresa
Image
We cannot separate our lives from the Eucharist the moment we do, something breaks. People ask, 'Where do the sisters get the joy and the energy to do what they are doing?' The Eucharist involves more than just receiving it also involves satisfying the hunger of Christ. He says, 'Come to Me.' He is hungry for souls.
Mother Teresa
Image
The greatest destroyer of love and peace is abortion, which is war against the child. The mother doesn't learn to love, but kills to solve her own problems. Any country that accepts abortion is not teaching its people to love, but to use any violence to get what they want.
Mother Teresa
Image
Whatever religion we are, we must pray together.
Mother Teresa
Image
Nothing makes you happier than when you really reach out in mercy to someone who is badly hurt.
Mother Teresa
Image
Life is a challenge, we must take it.
Mother Teresa
Image
You who have received so much love, share it with others. Love others the way that God has loved you, with tenderness.
Mother Teresa
Image
Of all the diseases I have known, loneliness is the worst.
Mother Teresa
Image
May God give back to you in love all the love you have given.
Mother Teresa
Image
The biggest disease today is not leprosy or cancer or tuberculosis, but rather the feeling or being unwanted, uncared for, deserted by everybody. The greatest evil is the lack of love and charity, the terrible indifference towards one's neighbor who lives at the roadside, the victim of exploitation, corruption, poverty, and disease.
Mother Teresa
Image
If there are poor on the moon, we will go there too.
Mother Teresa
Image
Every country I love and I am a child of God to love the humans.
Mother Teresa
Image
Loneliness and the feeling of being unwanted is the most terrible poverty.
Mother Teresa
Image
True love is love that causes us pain, that hurts, and yet brings us joy. That is why we must pray to God and ask Him to give us the courage to love
