Mother Teresa Is Quotations

The woman is at the heart of the home. Let us pray that we women realize the reason for our existence: to love and be loved and through this love become instruments of peace in the world.

Unless a life is lived for others, it is not worthwhile.

Life is beauty admire it!

The fruit of love is service, which is compassion in action.

Yesterday is gone and tomorrow has not yet come; we must live each day as if it were our last so that when God calls us we already, and prepared, to die with a clean heart.

I pray that you will understand the words of Jesus, “Love one another as I have loved you.” Ask yourself “How has he loved me? Do I really love others in the same way?” Unless this love is among us, we can kill ourselves with work and it will only be work, not love. Work without love is slavery.

Work without love is slavery.

Life is a promise; fulfill it.

Life is a challenge, we must take it.

Once that living love is destroyed by contraception, abortion follows very easily.

Love is not patronizing and charity isn't about pity, it is about love. Charity and love are the same -- with charity you give love, so don't just give money but reach out your hand instead.

To fear is to expect punishment. To love is to know we are immersed not in darkness, but in light.

Let me thus praise You in the way You love best: by shining on those around me. Let me preach You without preaching, not by words, but by my example, by the catching force, the sympathetic influence of what I do, the evident fullness of the love my heart bears to You. Amen.

The success of love is in the loving - it is not in the result of loving.

In the West we have a tendency to be profit-oriented, where everything is measured according to the results and we get caught up in being more and more active to generate results. In the East-especially in India-I find that people are more content to just be, to just sit around under a banyan tree for half a day chatting to each other. We Westerners would probably call that wasting time. But there is value to it. Being with someone, listening without a clock and without anticipation of results, teaches us about love. The success of love is in the loving-it is not in the result of loving.

You may be exhausted with work, you may even kill yourself, but unless your work is interwoven with love, it is useless. To work without love is slavery.

Justice without love is not justice. Love without justice is not love

Where does love begin? In our own homes. When does it begin? When we pray together. The family that prays together stays together.

Life is luck, make it.

Unless this love is among us, we can kill ourselves with work and it will only be work, not love. Work without love is slavery.

Sometimes it is harder for us to smile at those who live with us, the immediate members of our families, than it is to smile at those who are not so close to us. Let us never forget: love begins at home.

The fruit of love is service, the fruit of service is peace, and peace begins with a smile.

Let us love one another as God loves each one of us. And where does this love begin? In our own home. How does it begin? By praying together.

We must never get into the habit of being preoccupied with the future. There is no reason to do so. God is there.

Love is repaid by love alone!

We complicate prayer as we complicate many things. It is to love Jesus with undivided love-for you, for me, for all of us. And that undivided love is put into action when we do as Jesus said, love as I have loved you

You who have received so much love, show your love by protecting the sacredness of life. The sacredness of life is the greatest gifts that God has given us.

Life is love, enjoy it. Life is mystery, know it. Life is a promise, fulfill it.

We must love one another as God loves each one of us. To be able to love, we need a clean heart. Prayer is what gives us a clean heart. The fruit of prayer is a deepening of faith and the fruit of faith is love. The fruit of love is service, which is compassion in action.

Love is proved by deeds; the more they cost us, the greater the proof of our love.

In loving and serving, we prove that we have been created in the likeness of God, for God is Love and when we love we are like God.

Life is an opportunity, benefit from it.

Life is a dream, realise it.

True love is love that causes us pain, that hurts, and yet brings us joy. That is why we must pray to God and ask Him to give us the courage to love

The way to plan the family is natural family planning, not contraception...This (use of contraceptives) turns the attention to self and so it destroys the gift of love in him or her. In loving, the husband and wife must turn the attention to each other as happens in natural family planning, and not to self, as happens in contraception. Once that living love is destroyed by contraception, abortion follows easily . . . And abortion, which often follows from contraception, brings a people to be spiritually poor, and that is the worst poverty and the most difficult to overcome.

Life is not worth living unless it is lived for others.
