Do not allow yourselves to be disheartened by any failure as long as you have done your best.

- Mother Teresa

We can not do great things. We can only do little things with great love.

- Mother Teresa

Be faithful in small things because it is in them that your strength lies.

- Mother Teresa

Being unwanted, unloved, uncared for, forgotten by everybody, I think that is a much greater hunger, a much greater poverty than the person who has nothing to eat.

- Mother Teresa

Even the rich are hungry for love, for being cared for, for being wanted, for having someone to call their own.

- Mother Teresa

I try to give to the poor people for love what the rich could get for money. No, I wouldn't touch a leper for a thousand pounds; yet I willingly cure him for the love of God.

- Mother Teresa

The most terrible poverty is loneliness and the feeling of being unloved.

- Mother Teresa

Joy is a net of love by which you can catch souls.

- Mother Teresa

Let us always meet each other with smile, for the smile is the beginning of love.

- Mother Teresa

Let us more and more insist on raising funds of love, of kindness, of understanding, of peace. Money will come if we seek first the Kingdom of God - the rest will be given.

- Mother Teresa

Let us not be satisfied with just giving money. Money is not enough, money can be got, but they need your hearts to love them. So, spread your love everywhere you go.

- Mother Teresa

Let us touch the dying, the poor, the lonely and the unwanted according to the graces we have received and let us not be ashamed or slow to do the humble work.

- Mother Teresa

Loneliness and the feeling of being unwanted is the most terrible poverty.

- Mother Teresa

Love begins at home, and it is not how much we do... but how much love we put in that action.

- Mother Teresa

Many people mistake our work for our vocation. Our vocation is the love of Jesus.

- Mother Teresa

The greatest destroyer of peace is abortion because if a mother can kill her own child, what is left for me to kill you and you to kill me? There is nothing between.

- Mother Teresa

The miracle is not that we do this work, but that we are happy to do it.

- Mother Teresa
