We cannot really know God if we do not pray.
Mother Teresa
Image
If there are poor on the moon, we will go there too.
Mother Teresa
Image
The more we can give in our silent prayer, the more we can give in our active life.
Mother Teresa
Image
Hungry not only for bread - but hungry for love. Naked not only for clothing - but naked of human dignity and respect. Homeless not only for want of a home of bricks - but homeless because of rejection.
Mother Teresa
Image
We serve life, not because it is broken, but because it is holy.
Mother Teresa
Image
Doctors can heal the body, but it is music that uplifts the spirit.
Mother Teresa
Image
There is only one God and He is God to all therefore it is important that everyone is seen as equal before God. I've always said we should help a Hindu become a better Hindu, a Muslim become a better Muslim, a Catholic become a better Catholic.
Mother Teresa
Image
The fullness of our heart is expressed in our eyes, in our touch, in what we write, in what we say, in the way we walk, the way we receive, the way we serve.
Mother Teresa
Image
For me, life is the most beautiful gift of God to mankind, therefore people and nations who destroy life by abortion and euthanasia are the poorest. I do not say legal or illegal, but I think that no human hand should be raised to kill life, since life is God's life in us, even in an unborn child.

To choose always the hardest.

The biggest disease today is not leprosy or tuberculosis, but rather the feeling of being unwanted.

From the moment a soul has the grace to know God, she must seek.
Mother Teresa

Holiness grows so fast where there is kindness. The world is lost for want of sweetness and kindness. Do not forget we need each other.
Mother Teresa
Image
Give the world the best you have and you may get hurt. Give the world your best anyway.
Mother Teresa
Image
I alone cannot change the world, but I can cast a stone across the waters to create many ripples.
Mother Teresa
Image
What we say does not matter - only what God says to souls through us.
Mother Teresa
Image
What you spend years building may be destroyed overnight build it anyway.
Mother Teresa
Image
Life is a challenge, we must take it.
Mother Teresa
Image
I have found the paradox, that if you love until it hurts, there can be no more hurt, only more love.
Mother Teresa
Image
Faith is a gift of God. Without it there would be no life. And our work, to be fruitful, and to be all for God, and to be beautiful, has to be built of faith. Faith in Christ who has said, I was hungry, I was naked, I was sick, and I was homeless, and you ministered to me! On these words of His all our work is based.
