Find your own Calcutta. Find the sick, the suffering and the lonely right there where you are.
Mother Teresa
Go out into the world today and love the people you meet. Let your presence light new light in the hearts of people.
Mother Teresa
Do not think that love in order to be genuine has to be extraordinary. What we need is to love without getting tired. Be faithful in small things because it is in them that your strength lies.
Mother Teresa

God made the world for the delight of human beings.
Mother Teresa
Jesus has said Come, blessed of my Father, take the seat in the kingdom prepared for you, because I was hungry you gave me food, I was thirsty you have me drink, I was naked you clothed me, I was homeless you took me home and I was sick you visited me. And we are just doing that.
Mother Teresa
