If you do good, people will accuse you of selfish ulterior motives. Do good anyway.

Selfish, People, Self Centered

Mother Teresa (1995). “A Simple Path-Open Market”

We are all pencils in the hand of God.

Love, Mother, Spiritual

Today, if we have no peace, it is because we have forgotten that we belong to each other-that man, that woman, that child is my brother or my sister. If everyone could see the image of God in his neighbor, do you think we would still need tanks and generals?

Brother, Children, Men

Mother Teresa (2010). “Where There Is Love, There Is God: A Path to Closer Union with God and Greater Love for Others”, p.330, Image

We cannot really know God if we do not pray.

Praying, Knowing God, Knows

Our poor people are great people, a very lovable people, They don't need our pity and sympathy. They need our understanding love and they need our respect. We need to tell the poor that they are somebody to us that they, too, have been created, by the same loving hand of God, to love and be loved.

Hands, People, Understanding

Prayer in action is love, and love in action is service. Try to give unconditionally whatever a person needs in the moment. The point is to do something, however small, and show you care through your actions by giving your time ... Do not worry about why problems exist in the world - just respond to people's needs ... We feel what we are doing is just a drop in the ocean, but that ocean would be less without that drop.

Prayer, Ocean, People

Mother Teresa (1995). “A Simple Path-Open Market”

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.

Giving, Great Love, Expectations

God made the world for the delight of human beings-- if we could see His goodness everywhere, His concern for us, His awareness of our needs: the phone call we've waited for, the ride we are offered, the letter in the mail, just the little things He does for us throughout the day. As we remember and notice His love for us, we just begin to fall in love with Him because He is so busy with us -- you just can't resist Him. I believe there's no such thing as luck in life, it's God's love, it's His.

Falling In Love, Believe, Phones

Faith is a gift from God and he gives it to whomever he chooses

Giving, Gift From God

Mother Teresa (1996). “In My Own Words”

Success will win you false friends and true enemies - succeed anyway.

Dance, Winning, Enemy

Peace begins with a smile. I will never understand all the good that a simple smile can accomplish.

Peace, Simple, Accomplish

God is everywhere and in everything and without Him we cannot exist.

Mother Teresa (1995). “A Simple Path-Open Market”

And if we can accept that a mother can kill her own child, how can we tell other people not to kill one another?

Mother, Children, People

As for me, the silence and the emptiness is so great, that I look and do not see, — Listen and do not hear — the tongue moves but does not speak … I want you to pray for me — that I let Him have free hand.

Moving, Hands, Silence

If you hold an anti-war rally, I shall not attend. But if you hold a Pro-Peace rally invite me.

War, Anti War, Invites

There is more hunger for love and appreciation in this world than for bread.

Love, Relationship, Appreciation

What we say does not matter - only what God says to souls through us.

Inspiration, Soul, Doe

Mother Teresa (1996). “In My Own Words”

We must never be afraid to be a sign of contradiction for the world.

Being Different, Different, World

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.

Giving, Television, Penance

I belong to Jesus. He must have the right to use me without consulting me.

Jesus, Use, Using Me

Holiness does not consist in doing extraordinary things. It consists in accepting, with a smile, what Jesus sends us. It consists in accepting and following the will of God.

Jesus, Doe, Holiness

Mother Teresa (1996). “In My Own Words”
