More quotes by Mother Teresa
Get to know the poor in your country. Love them. Serve them.
Mother Teresa
The work we do is only our love for Jesus in action...If we pray the work...if we do it to Jesus, if we do it for Jesus, if we do it with Jesus...that's what makes us content.
Mother Teresa
We will never know how much just a simple smile will do.
Mother Teresa
I want you to find the poor here, right in your own home first. And begin love there. Be that good news to your own people.
Mother Teresa
Let us make one point, that we meet each other with a smile, when it is difficult to smile. Smile at each other, make time for each other in your family.
Mother Teresa
Peace begins with a smile. I will never understand all the good that a simple smile can accomplish.
Mother Teresa
Some people come in our life as blessings. Some come in your life as lessons.
Mother Teresa
We never had any problem from them. Jyoti Basu has been very kind to us. He was the one who told me Mother, please do something for these (jail) girls. He has been helpful and always accessible to us over phone. We also never had any problem whenever we wanted to meet him.
Mother Teresa
Spread your love everywhere you go.
Mother Teresa
I do make conversion, if conversion means really turning people to God - to have a clean heart and to love God. That's the real conversion.
Mother Teresa
If I can give you any advice, I beg you to get closer to the Eucharist and to Jesus... We must pray to Jesus to give us that tenderness of the Eucharist.
Mother Teresa
If you are kind, people may accuse you of ulterior motives. Be kind anyway.
Mother Teresa
In the silence of the heart God speaks. If you face God in prayer and silence, God will speak to you. Then you will know that you are nothing. It is only when you realize your nothingness, your emptiness, that God can fill you with Himself. Souls of prayer are souls of great silence.
Mother Teresa
Whatever we get from the government or other people - even one rupee we get, we give it to the poor. Completely free service.
Mother Teresa
Let's not pray long, drawn-out prayers, but let's pray short ones full of love. Let us pray on behalf of those who do not pray. Let us remember, if we want to be able to love, we must be able to pray!
Mother Teresa
If you really love one another, you will not be able to avoid making sacrifices.
Mother Teresa
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
It is only by frequent deaths of ourselves and our self-centered desires that we can come to live more fully.
Mother Teresa
Love - the more you share with others, the more you have.
Mother Teresa
Faith is a gift from God and he gives it to whomever he chooses
Mother Teresa
