Because I cannot rely on myself, I rely on Him, twenty-four hours a day.

There is only one God and He is God to all; therefore it is important that everyone is seen as equal before God. I've always said we should help a Hindu become a better Hindu, a Muslim become a better Muslim, a Catholic become a better Catholic.

Let anyone who comes to you go away feeling better and happier. Everyone should see goodness in your face, in your eyes, in your smile. Joy shows from the eyes. It appears when we speak and walk. It cannot be kept closed inside us. It reacts outside. Joy is very infectious.

Spread love everywhere you go. Let no one ever come to you without leaving happier.

You have to do that here in your country. You must come to know the poor. Maybe our people here have material things, everything, but I think that if we all look into our own homes, how difficult we find it sometimes to smile at each other, and that the smile is the beginning of love.

I would rather make mistakes in kindness and compassion than work miracles in unkindness and hardness.

If we have no peace, it is because we have forgotten that we belong to each other.
