“God has not called me to be successful; He has called me to be faithful.”

Mother Teresa

“In the West we have a tendency to be profit-oriented, where everything is measured according to the results and we get caught up in being more and more active to generate results. In the East -- especially in India -- I find that people are more content to just be, to just sit around under a banyan tree for half a day chatting to each other. We Westerners would probably call that wasting time. But there is value to it. Being with someone, listening wihtout a clock and without anticipation of results, teaches us about love. The success of love is in the loving -- it is not in the result of loving. 

Mother Teresa

“Some people come in our life as blessings. Others come in our life as lessons.”

Mother Teresa

“The first requirement for prayer is silence. People of prayer are people of silence.”

Mother Teresa

“We are all pencils in the hand of God.”

Mother Teresa

“The hunger for love is much more difficult to remove than the hunger for bread.”

Mother Teresa

“If we really want to love we must learn how to forgive."

Mother Teresa

“Pain and suffering have come into your life, but remember pain, sorrow, suffering are but the kiss of Jesus - a sign that you have come so close to Him that He can kiss you.”

Mother Teresa

“The Lord likes small things best, especially those done with love.”

Mother Teresa

“People are unrealistic, illogical, and self-centered. Love them anyway.”

Mother Teresa

“At the hour of death when we come face-to-face with God, we are going to be judged on love; not how much we have done, but how much love we put into the doing.”

Mother Teresa

“It is our emptiness and lowliness that God needs and not our plenitude. These are a few of the ways we can practice humility: Speak as little as possible of oneself. Mind one's own business. Avoid curiosity. Do not want to manage other people's affairs. Accept contradiction and correction cheerfully. Pass over the mistakes of others. Accept blame when innocent. Yield to the will of others. Accept insults and injuries. Accept being slighted, forgotten, and disliked. Be kind and gentle even under provocation. Do not seek to be specially loved and admired. Never stand on one's dignity. Yield in discussion even when one is right. Choose always the hardest.” 

Mother Teresa

“The greatest science in the world; in heaven and on earth; is love.”

Mother Teresa

“Words which do not give the light of Christ increase the darkness.”

Mother Teresa

“Give the world the best you have, and it may never be enough; give the world the best you've got anyway.”

Mother Teresa
