More quotes by Mother Teresa
People are hungry for God. What [a] terrible meeting [it] would be with our neighbour if we give them only ourselves.
Mother Teresa
Let us preach you, Dear Jesus, without preaching.... not by words but by our example.
Mother Teresa
The right to life does not depend, and must not be declared to be contingent, on the pleasure of anyone else, not even a parent or sovereign.
Mother Teresa
Love is not patronizing and charity isn't about pity, it is about love. Charity and love are the same -- with charity you give love, so don't just give money but reach out your hand instead.
Mother Teresa
If our bones were not sending whispers of doubt to our hearts, there would be no need for prayer at all.
Mother Teresa
Thank God we don't serve God with our feelings, otherwise I don't know where I would be. - Pray for me.
Mother Teresa
Faith is more important to me than life itself because without it there would be no fullness of life.
Mother Teresa
You who have received so much love, share it with others. Love others the way that God has loved you, with tenderness.
Mother Teresa
If you are looking for vocations, as a community have adoration every day. Once the Missionaries of Charity started daily adoration, their vocations doubled
Mother Teresa
A clean heart can see God, can speak to God, and can see the love of God in others.
Mother Teresa
Suffering, if it is accepted together, borne together, is joy.
Mother Teresa
Put yourself completely under the influence of Jesus, so that he may think his thoughts in your mind, do his work through your hands, for you will be all-powerful with him to strengthen you.
Mother Teresa
You and I, we are the Church, no? We have to share with our people. Suffering today is because people are hoarding, not giving, not sharing. Jesus made it very clear. Whatever you do to the least of my brethren, you do it to me. Give a glass of water, you give it to me. Receive a little child, you receive me. Clear.
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
It is impossible to love God without loving our neighbor.
Mother Teresa
Of all the diseases I have known, loneliness is the worst.
Mother Teresa
Gandhi felt fascinated at knowing Christ. He met Christians, and felt let down.
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
We can cure physical diseases with medicine, but the only cure for loneliness, despair, and hopelessness is love. There are many in the world who are dying for a piece of bread, but there are many more dying for a little love.
Mother Teresa
