Mother TeresaNone of us, including me, ever do great things. But we can all do small things, with great love, and together we can do something wonderful.
Mother TeresaSpeak tenderly; 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.
Mother TeresaNever worry about numbers. Help one person at a time and always start with the person nearest you.
