Quote

When a poor person dies I want then to die in the arms of somebody who loves them. I want them to be able to look for the last time into the eyes of somebody who cares for them

At this Christmas when Christ comes, will He find a warm heart? Mark the season of Advent by loving and serving the others with God's own love and concern.
Mother Teresa
Image
The miracle is not that we do this work, but that we are happy to do it.

Faith keeps the person who keeps the faith.
Mother Teresa

But I feel that the greatest destroyer of peace today is abortion, because it is a war against the child, a direct killing of the innocent child, murder by the mother herself.
Mother Teresa

One thing will always secure heaven for us-the acts of charity and kindness with which we have filled our lives. We can do no great things, only small things with great love.
Mother Teresa
Image
I do not pray for success, I ask for faithfulness.

Silence came before creation, and the heavens were spread without a word
Mother Teresa
Image
The success of love is in the loving - it is not in the result of loving. Of course it is natural in love to want the best for the other person, but whether it turns out that way or not does not determine the value of what we have done.
Mother Teresa
Image
If people spent one hour per week in Eucharistic Adoration, abortion would be ended
Mother Teresa
Image
Human rights are not a privilege conferred by government. They are every human being's entitlement by virtue of his humanity.
Mother Teresa
Image
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
Image
Love has no meaning if it isn't shared. We have been created for greater things - to love and to be loved... To love a person without any conditions, without any expectations. Small things, done in great love, bring joy and peace. To love, it is necessary to give. To give, it is necessary to be free from selfishness.
Mother Teresa

Gandhi felt fascinated at knowing Christ. He met Christians, and felt let down.

If you want to have world peace, go to your house and love your family.
