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 TeresaDon't look for big things, just do small things with great love...the smaller the thing, the greater must be our love.
Mother TeresaOne day there springs up the desire for money and for all that money can provide — the superfluous, luxury in eating, luxury in dressing, trifles. Needs increase because one thing calls for another. The result is uncontrollable dissatisfaction. Let us remain as empty as possible so that God can fill us up.
Mother TeresaBut still, everything is for Jesus; so like that everything is beautiful, even though it is difficult.
