The good you do today may be forgotten tomorrow. Do good anyway.
— Mother Teresa
The success of love is in the loving – it is not in the result of loving. Of course it is natural in love to want the best for the other person, but whether it turns out that way or not does not determine the value of what we have done.
Mother Teresa of Calcutta
A few quotes relating to Charity, the pure love of Christ, from Mother Teresa of Calcutta:
I am a little pencil in the hand of a writing God who is sending a love letter to the world.
We cannot all do great things, but we can do small things with great love.
We think sometimes that poverty is only being hungry, naked and homeless. The poverty of being unwanted, unloved and uncared for is the greatest poverty. We must start in our own homes to remedy this kind of poverty.
If we have no peace, it is because we have forgotten that we belong to each other.
The success of love is in the loving – it is not in the result of loving. Of course it is natural in love to want the best for the other person, but whether it turns out that way or not does not determine the value of what we have done.
Let nothing perturb you, nothing frighten you. All things pass. God does not change. Patience achieves everything.
Mother Teresa
If you are humble nothing will touch you, neither praise nor disgrace, because you know what you are.
Mother Teresa
