More quotes by Mother Teresa
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

Mother Teresa
The poor are our brothers and sisters ... people in the world who need love, who need care, who have to be wanted.

Mother Teresa
If our bones were not sending whispers of doubt to our hearts, there would be no need for prayer at all.
Mother Teresa
Our life of poverty is as necessary as the work itself. Only in heaven will we see how much we owe to the poor for helping us to love God better because of them.
Mother Teresa
All we do our prayers our work our suffering is for Jesus. Our life has no other reason or motivation.
Mother Teresa
Let us not use bombs and guns to overcome the world. Let us use love and compassion. Peace begins with a smile-smile five times a day at someone you don't really want to smile at at all-do it for peace. So let us radiate peace...and extinguish in the world and in the hearts of all men all hatred and love for power.
Mother Teresa
The first step to becoming is to will it.
Mother Teresa
Life is an adventure, dare it.
Mother Teresa
