[My mother tongue is] Albanian. But, I am equally fluent in Bengali (language of Calcutta) and English.

What can you do to promote world peace? Go home and love your family.

Holiness is not a privilege of a few but a need for all.

In the poorest of the poor we see Jesus in distressed guise.

I begin each day with holy Mass, receiving Jesus hidden under the appearance of a simple piece of bread. Then I go out into the streets and I find the same Jesus hidden in the dying destitute, the AIDS patients, the lepers, the abandoned children, the hungry, and the homeless. It's the same Jesus.

What we say does not matter - only what God says to souls through us.

We have picked up people full of worms from the streets, cared for them and let them die in peace and love. When they are brought to our home, they feel they are in their own homes, with their own families. Now, I am trying to open a house for AIDS victims here (in Delhi). The people are dying because of it.
