More quotes by 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
Be kind to each other. It is better to commit faults with gentleness than to work miracles with unkindness.
Mother Teresa
We realize that what we are accomplishing is a drop in the ocean. But if this drop were not in the ocean, it would be missed.
Mother Teresa
You have to do that here in your country. You must come to know the poor. Maybe our people here have material things, everything, but I think that if we all look into our own homes, how difficult we find it sometimes to smile at each other, and that the smile is the beginning of love.
Mother Teresa
When you love till it hurts, there will be no hurt left, just love.
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
No matter who says what, you should accept it with a smile and do your own work.
Mother Teresa
The problem with the world is that we draw the circle of our family too small.
Mother Teresa
Our hours of adoration will be special hours of reparation for sins, and intercession for the needs of the whole world, exposing the sin-sick and suffering humanity to the healing, sustaining and transforming rays of Jesus, radiating from the Eucharist.
Mother Teresa
Prayer is not asking. Prayer is putting oneself in the hands of God, at His disposition, and listening to His voice in the depth of our hearts.
Mother Teresa
These concerns (for orphan children in India and elsewhere in the world) are very good, but often these same people are not concerned with the millions that are killed by the deliberate decision of their own mothers.
Mother Teresa
There are two victims in every abortion: a dead baby and a dead conscience.
Mother Teresa
Following Jesus is simple, but not easy. Love until it hurts, and then love more.
Mother Teresa
There are others who take up that (liberating) role. I have no time to spend for that.
Mother Teresa
Perpetual Eucharistic Adoration with exposition needs a great push. People ask me: 'What will convert America and save the world?' My answer is prayer. What we need is for every parish to come before Jesus in the Blessed Sacrament in holy hours of prayer.
Mother Teresa
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
Our Father, here I am, at your disposal, your child, to use me to continue your loving the world, by giving Jesus to me and through me, to each other that we allow Jesus to love in us and through us with the love with which His Father loves him.
Mother Teresa
If you want to have world peace, go to your house and love your family.
Mother Teresa
Today it is fashionable to talk about the poor. Unfortunately, it is not fashionable to talk with them.
Mother Teresa
In the final analysis it is between you and God, it was never between you and them anyway.
Mother Teresa
