Mother Teresa Quotes...





Mother Teresa Quotes

Mother Teresa (born Agnes Gonxha Bojaxhiu), was born in
1910 in what is now Skopje, Macedonia. She came into the
world on August 26, 1910, although she always wrote that
her birthday was August 27, because that was the day of
her baptism, which she considered more important than her
birth. Some of her more famous quotes are below.


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


"Every time you smile at someone, it is an action of love,
a gift to that person, a beautiful thing."


"I want you to be concerned about your next door neighbor.
Do you know your next door neighbor?"


"Joy is very infectious; therefore, be always full of joy."


"Violence of the tongue is very real - sharper than any knife."


"Do not wait for leaders; do it alone, person to person."


"It is a kingly act to assist the fallen."


"Good works are links that form a chain of love."


"We need to find God, and he cannot be found in noise and
restlessness. God is the friend of silence. See how nature -
trees, flowers, grass - grows in silence; see the stars, the
moon and the sun, how they move in silence...
We need silence to be able to touch souls."


"I know God will not give me anything I can't handle.
I just wish that He didn't trust me so much."
