I was asked why I did not give a rod with which to fish, in the hands of the poor, rather than give the fish itself as this makes them remain poor. So I told them: The people whom we pick up are not able to stand with a rod. So today I will give them fish and when they are able to stand, then I shall send them to you and you can give them the rod. That is your job. Let me do my work today.
Mother TeresaAt the heart of silence is prayer. At the heart of prayer is faith. At the heart of faith is life. At the heart of life is service.
Mother TeresaIf only one little unhappy child is made happy with the love of Jesus,...will it not be worth...giving all for that?
Mother TeresaThe world today is hungry Not only for bread But hungry for love; Hungry to be wanted, Hungry to be loved.
