It is only when you realize your nothingness, your emptiness, that God can fill you with Himself.
Mother TeresaWhen a poor person dies I want then to die in the arms of somebody who loves them. I want them to be able to look for the last time into the eyes of somebody who cares for them
Mother TeresaIf everyone could see the image of God in his neighbor, do you think we should still need tanks and generals?
Mother TeresaThen we have the silence of the eyes which will always help us to see God. Our eyes are like two windows through which Christ or the world comes to our hearts. Often we need great courage to keep them closed. How often we say, I wish I had not seen this thing, and yet we take so little trouble to overcome the desire to see everything.
Mother Teresa
