More quotes by Mother Teresa

Image
People who really want help may attack you if you help them. Help them anyway.
Mother Teresa
Image
Holiness consists in doing God’s will joyfully. Faithfulness makes saints. The spiritual life is a union with Jesus: the divine and the human giving themselves to each other. The only thing Jesus asks of us is to give ourselves to him, in total poverty and total self-forgetfulness.
Mother Teresa
Image
God speaks in the silence of the heart. Listening is the beginning of prayer.
Mother Teresa
Image
You weren't created just to consume resources, you were put on this Earth to make a contribution.
Mother Teresa
Image
Holy living consists in doing God's work with a smile.
Mother Teresa
Image
God does not create poverty we do, because we do not share.
Mother Teresa
Image
I still think that the greatest suffering is being lonely, feeling unloved, just having no one... That is the worst disease that any human being can ever experience.
Mother Teresa
Image
If you try, you will find it impossible to do one great thing. You can only do many small things with great love.
Mother Teresa
Image
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
Image
Holiness is not the luxury of a few people, but a simple duty for you and me.
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
Whatever our religion, we know that if we really want to love, we must first learn to forgive before anything else.
Mother Teresa
Image
More tears are shed over answered prayers than unanswered ones.
Mother Teresa
Image
There are others who take up that (liberating) role. I have no time to spend for that.
Mother Teresa
Image
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
Image
When you don't have anything, then you have everything.
Mother Teresa
Image
It is easy to love the people far away. It is not always easy to love those close to us.
Mother Teresa
Image
It was easier to deal with poverty and death in India that the lack of spirituality in America.
Mother Teresa
Image
If only one little unhappy child is made happy with the love of Jesus,...will it not be worth...giving all for that?
Mother Teresa
Image
Silence gives us a new way of looking at something.
