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
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
If I'd never have picked up the first person, I'd never have picked up the 42,000 in Calcutta.
Mother Teresa
The more we can give in our silent prayer, the more we can give in our active life.
Mother Teresa
There is a light in this world, a healing spirit more powerful than any darkness we may encounter.
Mother Teresa
Don't expect your friend to be a perfect person. Help your friend to become a perfect person. That is true friendship
Mother Teresa
Every adult was once a child free from prejudice.

We must free ourselves to be filled by God. Even God cannot fill what is full.
Mother Teresa

Spread your love wherever you go.
Mother Teresa
Perpetual Eucharistic Adoration with exposition needs a great push. People ask me: 'What will convert America and save the world?' My answer is prayer. What we need is for every parish to come before Jesus in the Blessed Sacrament in holy hours of prayer.
Mother Teresa
Do not worry about why problems exist in the world - just respond to people's needs.
Mother Teresa
I can't help thousands, I can help only the one who stands before me.
Mother Teresa
I don't do great things. I do small things with great love.
Mother Teresa
If you have not the experience, ask. There is no shame in asking, but do not pretend you know when you don't.
Mother Teresa
I used to believe that prayer changes things, but now I know that prayer changes us, and we change things.
Mother Teresa
Holiness consists of doing the will of God with a smile.
Mother Teresa
Joy is very infectious therefore, be always full of joy!
Mother Teresa
The greatest destroyer of peace is abortion because if a mother can kill her own child, what is left for me to kill you and you to kill me? There is nothing between.
Mother Teresa
