Also known as Saint Teresa of Calcutta, Mother Teresa will always be remembered for her contribution to society.
Mother Teresa, who passed away on this day (September 5) in 1997, was a devoted Catholic nun whose mission was to lessen the misery of the sick and the underprivileged.
On her death anniversary, here are some of the quotes by Mother Teresa that will motivate you to excel in life:
- “Love cannot remain by itself – it has no meaning. Love has to be put into action, and that action is service.”
- “Be faithful in small things because it is in them that your strength lies.”
- “Spread love everywhere you go. Let no one ever come to you without leaving happier.”
- “We ourselves feel that what we are doing is just a drop in the ocean. But the ocean would be less because of that missing drop.”
- “Let us always meet each other with smile, for the smile is the beginning of love.”
- “Not all of us can do great things. But we can do small things with great love.”
- “Being unwanted, unloved, uncared for, forgotten by everybody, I think that is a much greater hunger, a much greater poverty than the person who has nothing to eat.”
- “If you can’t feed a hundred people, then feed just one.”
