Let us not use bombs and guns to overcome the world. Let us use love and compassion. Peace begins with a smile.
Mother TeresaPut your sins in the chalice for the precious blood to wash away. One drop is capable of washing away the sins of the world.
Mother TeresaLove is not patronizing and charity isn't about pity, it is about love. Charity and love are the same -- with charity you give love, so don't just give money but reach out your hand instead.
Mother TeresaI choose the poverty of our poor people. But I am grateful to receive it (the Nobel) in the name of the hungry, the naked, the homeless, of the crippled, of the blind, of the lepers, of all those people who feel unwanted, unloved, uncared for throughout society, people that have become a burden to the society and are shunned by everyone.
