More quotes by Mother Teresa
If I'd never have picked up the first person, I'd never have picked up the 42,000 in Calcutta.
Mother Teresa
If you want to have world peace, go to your house and love your family.
Mother Teresa
I pray that you will understand the words of Jesus, “Love one another as I have loved you.” Ask yourself “How has he loved me? Do I really love others in the same way?” Unless this love is among us, we can kill ourselves with work and it will only be work, not love. Work without love is slavery.
Mother Teresa
If you have not the experience, ask. There is no shame in asking, but do not pretend you know when you don't.
Mother Teresa
Life is a game, play it... Life is too precious, do not destroy it.
Mother Teresa
What you do to these men on California's Death Row, you do to God.
Mother Teresa
You haven't done the will of God when you have done it miserably.
Mother Teresa
How much love did you put into what you did?
Mother Teresa
All that we need to know all the wisdom of the cosmos we will find in our own heart
Mother Teresa
The family that prays together stays together, and if they stay together they will love one another as God has loved each one of them. And works of love are always works of peace.
Mother Teresa
There is a famine in America. Not a famine of food, but of love, of truth, of life.
Mother Teresa
Everything starts from prayer. Without asking God for love, we cannot possess love and still less are we able to give it to others. Just as people today are speaking so much about the poor but they do not know or talk to the poor, we too cannot talk so much about prayer and yet not know how to pray.
Mother Teresa
If I look at the mass I will never act.
Mother Teresa
Prayer to be fruitful must come from the heart and must be able to touch the heart of God.
Mother Teresa
Hungry for love, He looks at you. Thirsty for kindness, He begs of you. Naked for loyalty, He hopes in you. Homeless for shelter in your heart, He asks of you. Will you be that one to Him?
Mother Teresa
I choose the poverty of our poor people. But I am grateful to receive it (the Nobel) in the name of the hungry, the naked, the homeless, of the crippled, of the blind, of the lepers, of all those people who feel unwanted, unloved, uncared for throughout society, people that have become a burden to the society and are shunned by everyone.
Mother Teresa
Without our suffering, our work would simply be social work, very good and helpful, but it would not be the work of Jesus Christ, not part of the Redemption.
Mother Teresa
Our poverty is freedom. This is our poverty - the giving up our freedom to dispose of things, to choose, to possess
Mother Teresa
You can and you must expect suffering.
Mother Teresa
I am not sure exactly what heaven will be like, but I know that when we die and it comes time for God to judge us, he will not ask, 'How many good things have you done in your life?' rather he will ask, 'How much love did you put into what you did?'
Mother Teresa
