More quotes by Mother Teresa
The first time I received an award, I was very surprised. I did not know whether to accept it or not. But I came to the conclusion that I should accept awards in the name of the poorest poor, as a form of homage to them. I think that basically, when awards are given to me, the existence of the poor in the world is being recognized.
Mother Teresa
Holiness is not a luxury for the few it is not just for some people. It is meant for you and for me and for all of us. It is a simple duty, because if we learn to love, we learn to be holy.
Mother Teresa
Though we are involved in social work, our goal is to be contemplatives at the heart of the world. We are with Jesus twenty-four hours a day. We do everything for Jesus. We do it all unto Jesus.
Mother Teresa
We must pray to Jesus to give us that tenderness of the Eucharist.
Mother Teresa
If there are poor on the moon, we will go there too.
Mother Teresa
If you are humble nothing will touch you, neither praise nor disgrace, because you know what you are.
Mother Teresa
Every country I love and I am a child of God to love the humans.
Mother Teresa
I will not pray clarity for you. Clarity is the crutch of the Christian. But I will pray trust for you, that your trust will increase.
Mother Teresa
God does not demand that I be successful. God demands that I be faithful. When facing God, results are not important. Faithfulness is what is important.
Mother Teresa
Abortion kills twice. It kills the body of the baby and it kills the conscience of the mother. Abortion is profoundly anti-women. Three quarters of its victims are women: Half the babies and all the mothers.
Mother Teresa
I'm a little pencil in the hand of a writing God, who is sending a love letter to the world.
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
Let's not pray long, drawn-out prayers, but let's pray short ones full of love. Let us pray on behalf of those who do not pray. Let us remember, if we want to be able to love, we must be able to pray!
Mother Teresa
Be humble like Mary so that you can be holy like Jesus
Mother Teresa
Be faithful in small things because it is in them that your strength lies.
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
Even when the urgent is good, the good can keep you from your best, keep you from your unique contribution, if you let it.
Mother Teresa
At the heart of silence is prayer. At the heart of prayer is faith. At the heart of faith is life. At the heart of life is service.
Mother Teresa
If you are hungry to hear the voice of God, you will hear. To hear, you have to cut out all other things.
Mother Teresa
We will never know how much just a simple smile will do.
Mother Teresa
