Never Let Anyone Come to You Without Coming Away Better and Happier
Mother Teresa
Image
Life is a game, play it... Life is too precious, do not destroy it.
Mother Teresa

Jesus, I love you. Jesus, I love you.
Mother Teresa

Recovering in a Calcutta, India hospital. I think I'm more difficult than critical.
Mother Teresa
Image
The more you have, the more you are occupied, the less you give. But the less you have the more free you are. Poverty for us is a freedom. It is not mortification, a penance. It is joyful freedom. There is no television here, no this, no that. But we are perfectly happy.
Mother Teresa
Image
Even if I wanted, I cannot do anything. When they die, we always send for their co-religionists. Muslims take the Muslim's body to bury it, Hindus come and take away the dead to be cremated and Christians come and bury their dead.

Holiness is not a privilege of a few but a need for all.
Mother Teresa
Image
Let us make one point, that we meet each other with a smile, when it is difficult to smile. Smile at each other, make time for each other in your family.

If abortion isn't wrong, then nothing is wrong.
Mother Teresa
Image
I never look at the masses as my responsibility. I look at the individual. I can love only one person at a time. I can feed only one person at a time. Just one, one, one.
Mother Teresa
Image
Love cannot remain by itself - it has no meaning. Love has to be put into action, and that action is service. Whatever form we are, able or disabled, rich or poor, it is not how much we do, but how much love we put in the doing a lifelong sharing of love with others.
Mother Teresa
Image
I can do only one thing, like a little dog follow closely the Master's footsteps. Pray that I be a cheerful dog.
Mother Teresa
Image
We the willing, led by the unknowing, are doing the impossible for the ungrateful. We have done so much, with so little, for so long, we are now qualified to do anything, with nothing.
Mother Teresa
Image
Self knowledge puts us on our knees, and it is very necessary for love. For knowledge of God gives love, and knowledge of self gives humility
Mother Teresa
Image
Love until it hurts. Real love is always painful and hurts: then it is real and pure.
Mother Teresa
Image
People are hungry for God. What [a] terrible meeting [it] would be with our neighbour if we give them only ourselves.
Mother Teresa
Image
Following Jesus is simple, but not easy. Love until it hurts, and then love more.
Mother Teresa
Image
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
Image
So many signatures for such a small heart.
