Here are FOUR insightful quotes from Mother Teresa which seem fitting for all of us at Lounge of Tomorrow:
(1) "The more you have, the more you are occupied, the less you give. But the less you have the more free you are. Poverty for us is a freedom. It is not mortification, a penance. It is joyful freedom."
(2) "Little things are indeed little, but to be faithful in little things is a great thing."
(3) "I never look at the masses as my responsibility; I look at the individual. I can only love one person at a time - just one, one, one. So you begin. I began – I picked up one person. Maybe if I didn’t pick up that one person, I wouldn’t have picked up forty-two thousand…. The same thing goes for you, the same thing in your family, the same thing in your church, your community. Just being – one, one, one."
(4) "Speak tenderly to them. Let there be kindness in your face, in your eyes, in your smile, in the warmth of your greeting. Always have a cheerful smile. Don't only give your care, but give your heart as well."
