Humility is the mother of all virtues; purity, charity and obedience. It is in being humble that our love becomes real, devoted and ardent. If you are humble nothing will touch you, neither praise nor disgrace, because you know what you are. If you are blamed you will not be discouraged. If they call you a saint you will not put yourself on a pedestal.
Mother TeresaLiving intensely each present day means letting Christ dwell within you. His words are so clear: Today I would like to enter your home.
Mother TeresaOur progress in holiness depends on God and ourselves - on God's grace and on our will to be holy.
Mother TeresaThere are many people who can do big things, but there are very few people who will do the small things.
