Mother Teresa : Quotes

"Spread love everywhere you go. Let no one ever come to you without leaving happier."

“Not all of us can do great things. But we can do small things with great love.”

"Life is an opportunity, benefit from it. Life is beauty,

admire it. Life is a dream, realize it. Life is a challenge,

meet it. Life is a duty, complete it. Life is a game, play it.

Life is a promise, fulfill it. Life is sorrow, overcome it.

Life is a song, sing it. Life is a struggle, accept it. Life

is a tragedy, confront it. Life is an adventure, dare it. Life

is luck, make it. Life is too precious, do not destroy it.

Life is life, fight for it."

“People are often unreasonable and self-centered. Forgive them anyway.

If you are kind, people may accuse you of ulterior motives. Be kind anyway.

If you are honest, people may cheat you. Be honest anyway.

If you find happiness, people may be jealous. Be happy anyway.

The good you do today may be forgotten tomorrow. Do good anyway.

Give the world the best you have and it may never be enough. Give your best anyway.

For you see, in the end, it is between you and God. It was never between you and them anyway.”

“Peace begins with a smile..”

“I am not sure exactly what heaven will be like, but I know that when we die and it comes time for God to judge us, he will not ask, 'How many good things have you done in your life?' rather he will ask, 'How much love did you put into what you did?”

“What can you do to promote world peace? Go home and love your family.”

“Prayer is not asking. Prayer is putting oneself in the hands of God, at His disposition, and listening to His voice in the depth of our hearts.”

“I can do things you cannot, you can do things I cannot; together we can do great things.”

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.
