Mother Teresa

I alone cannot change the world, but I can cast a stone across the waters to create many ripples.

We can do no great things, only small things with great love.

Love is not liking somebody. Anyone can do that. Love is loving things that sometimes you don’t like.

To the people who love you, you are beautiful already. This is not because they’re blind to your shortcomings but because they so clearly see your soul. Your shortcomings then dim by comparison. The people who care about you are willing to let you be imperfect and beautiful, too.

Love does not consist of gazing at each other, but in looking outward together in the same direction.

I believe we’re all in denial about the people we love.

My demons are begging me to open up my mouth.

I hope that real love and truth are stronger in the end than any evil or misfortune in the world.

O ’tis love, ’tis love, ’tis love that makes the world go round!

Some men love truth so much that they seem to be in continual fear lest she should catch a cold on overexposure.

I’m a wanderess, I’m a one night stand. Don’t belong to no city, don’t belong to no man.

But the law of loving others could not be discovered by reason, because it is unreasonable.

I don’t care too much for money, money can’t buy me love.

You can love a person dear to you with a human love, but an enemy can only be loved with divine love.

I’m well acquainted with villains that live in my head.

You’ll never get away from the sound of the woman that loves you.

Love comes when manipulation stops; when you think more about the other person than about his or her reactions to you. When you dare to reveal yourself fully. When you dare to be vulnerable.
