Among the profound truths from the late Mother Teresa are these pearls of wisdom:
“God doesn’t look at how much we do, but with how much love we do it. It is not what we take up, but what we give up, that makes us rich.”
… and also …
“Hungry not only for bread – but hungry for love….
Naked not only for clothing – but naked for human dignity and respect….
Homeless not only for want of a room of bricks – but homeless because of rejection.”
How eloquent!
Wow!!!
Another personal favourite quote is: “True friendship is like sound health, the value of it is seldom known until it be lost”. I forget who said it.
It’s hard to beat what they say in Alcoholics Anonymous: “God grant me the serenity to accept the things I cannot change, the courage to change the things I can, and the wisdom to know the difference.”
Sherlock Homes’ classic comment applies to everything we argue about…like God’s creation of the universe…
“When you have eliminated the impossible, whatever remains, however improbable, must be the truth”!
Sir Winston Churchill (uring the dark days of WWII’s Battle of Britain):
“I have nothing to offer but blood, toil, tears, and sweat.”
I love quotes about sacrifice, like that … for example Hellen Keller said:
“Happiness is not in self gratification. It is in fidelity to a worthy cause.”
Some of the best quotes are one liners from stand-up comics. But I’ve said too much already.
There are also great life-changing quotes in the Bible. I have a whole book of them! (that’s an original quote from me…you heard it here first)
was meanie. Remember when you were judged on how nice you were, and how you onely
wanted to hear “I love you” From your mom? Well now friends barely tell you the truth,
girls will call you a ton of things that will make you want to break down and cry. Now your
judged on how expensive your cloths are, and you’d give up every single time your mom
told you she loved you, just to hear him say it once.
-“eveything happens for a reason”

-“live in the now, forget the past, and hope for the future”

“I have yet to learn anything while I am talking”
