Mother Teresa

I used to believe that prayer changes things, but now I know that prayer changes us, and we change things.

Mother Teresa

If I look at the mass, I will never act. If I look at the one, I will.

Mother Teresa

If we worry too much about ourselves, we won’t have time for others.

Mother Teresa

If you are honest and frank, people may cheat you; Be honest and frank anyway.

Mother Teresa

If you are humble nothing will touch you, neither praise nor disgrace, because you know what you are.

Mother Teresa

If you have a sick or lonely person at home, be there. Maybe just to hold a hand, maybe just to give a smile, that is the greatest, the most beautiful work.

Mother Teresa

If you really love one another, you will not be able to avoid making sacrifices.

Mother Teresa

If you want a love message to be heard, it has got to be sent out. To keep a lamp burning, we have to keep putting oil in it.

Mother Teresa

In this life we cannot do great things. We can only do small things with great love.

Mother Teresa

It is easy to be proud and harsh and selfish – so easy. But we have been created for better things.
