The person who gives with a smile is the best giver because God loves a cheerful giver.
Mother TeresaWe are already taking care of people from jail. Hundred and ten non-criminal women are already with us in Shantidhan (abode of peace).
Mother TeresaOne thing that I ask of you: Never be afraid of giving. There is a deep joy in giving, since what we receive is much more than what we give.
Mother TeresaThe greatest disease in the West today is not TB or leprosy; it is being unwanted, unloved, and uncared for. We can cure physical diseases with medicine, but the only cure for loneliness, despair, and hopelessness is love. There are many in the world who are dying for a piece of bread but there are many more dying for a little love. The poverty in the West is a different kind of poverty -- it is not only a poverty of loneliness but also of spirituality. There's a hunger for love, as there is a hunger for God.
