It was easier to deal with poverty and death in India that the lack of spirituality in America.
Mother Teresa
Image
Silence of the heart is necessary so you can hear God everywhere - in the closing of the door, in the person who needs you, in the birds that sing, in the flowers, in the animals.
Mother Teresa
Image
There is a tremendous strength that is growing in the world through sharing together, praying together, suffering together, and working together.
Mother Teresa
Image
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
Image
Whatever we get from the government or other people - even one rupee we get, we give it to the poor. Completely free service.

Be not afraid. God loves you & wants us to love one another as He loves us. As miserable, weak and sinful as we are, He loves us with an infinitely faithful love.

I would rather make mistakes in kindness and compassion than work miracles in unkindness and hardness.
Mother Teresa

I begin each day with holy Mass, receiving Jesus hidden under the appearance of a simple piece of bread. Then I go out into the streets and I find the same Jesus hidden in the dying destitute, the AIDS patients, the lepers, the abandoned children, the hungry, and the homeless. It's the same Jesus.
Mother Teresa

I have said often, and I am sure of it, that the greatest destroyer of peace in the world today is abortion. If a mother can kill her own child, what is there to stop you and me from killing each other? The only one who has the right to take life is the The One who has created it.
Mother Teresa
Image
February 1997 - National Prayer Breakfast in Washington attended by the President and the First Lady. What is taking place in America, she said, is a war against the child. And if we accept that the mother can kill her own child, how can we tell other people not to kill one another.

Life is not worth living unless it is lived for others.
Mother Teresa

Holiness is doing God's will with a smile.
Mother Teresa
Image
Once we take our eyes away from ourselves, from our interests, from our own rights, privileges, ambitions - then they will become clear to see Jesus around us.
Mother Teresa
Image
Gandhi felt fascinated at knowing Christ. He met Christians, and felt let down.
Mother Teresa
Image
Where there is love, there is joy.
Mother Teresa
Image
Words lead to deeds, they prepare the soul, make it ready, and move it to tenderness.
Mother Teresa

Never Let Anyone Come to You Without Coming Away Better and Happier
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
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
