More quotes by Mother Teresa
We must make our homes centers of compassion and forgive endlessly.
Mother Teresa
A Mother is the heart of the home
Mother Teresa
I picked up a man from the street, and he was eaten up alive from worms. Nobody could stand him, and he was smelling so badly. I went to him to clean him, and he asked, 'Why do you do this?' I said, 'Because I love you.'
Mother Teresa
The more we empty ourselves, the more room we give God to fill us.
Mother Teresa
Brothers, Fathers and Sisters - all of us in the Missionaries of Charity are doing the same. All of us have been created by God to love and to be loved. We are involved in this work. When you do that, there is joy, unity and love.
Mother Teresa
I always say if you are afraid of them (the unborn), give them to me. Please, don't kill them.
Mother Teresa
How can there be too many children? That is like saying there are too many flowers.
Mother Teresa
I have said often, and I am sure of it, that the greatest destroyer of peace in the world today is abortion. If a mother can kill her own child, what is there to stop you and me from killing each other? The only one who has the right to take life is the The One who has created it.
Mother Teresa
Let us love one another as God loves each one of us. And where does this love begin? In our own home. How does it begin? By praying together.
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'.
Mother Teresa
The more you forget yourself, the more Jesus will think of you.
Mother Teresa
To be pure, to remain pure, can only come at a price, the price of knowing God and loving him enough to do his will. He will always give us the strength we need to keep purity as something as beautiful for him.
Mother Teresa
Spread your love wherever you go.
Mother Teresa
People crave attention and appreciation more than they do bread.
Mother Teresa
So many signatures for such a small heart.
Mother Teresa
In the end, dear friend, it is always between us and God, not between us and them.
Mother Teresa
Love begins at home, and it is not how much we do, but how much love we put in the action that we do.
Mother Teresa
Profound joy of the heart is like a magnet that indicates the path of life.
Mother Teresa
The purpose of guilt is to bring us to the Lord, after that it has no purpose.
Mother Teresa
The success of love is in the loving - it is not in the result of loving. Of course it is natural in love to want the best for the other person, but whether it turns out that way or not does not determine the value of what we have done.
Mother Teresa
