“Be happy in the moment, that's enough. Each moment is all we need, not more.”
“There's nothing more calming in difficult moments that knowing there's some one fighting with you.”
“We do not need guns and bombs to bring peace, we need love and compassion.”
“If we have no peace, it is because we have forgotten that we belong to each other.”
“Let us make one point, that we meet each other with a smile, when it is difficult to smile. Smile at each other, make time for each other in your family.”
“When you have nothing left but God,you have more than enough to start over again.”
“In the West we have a tendency to be profit-oriented, where everything is measured according to the results and we get caught up in being more and more active to generate results. In the East -- especially in India -- I find that people are more content to just be, to just sit around under a banyan tree for half a day chatting to each other. We Westerners would probably call that wasting time. But there is value to it. Being with someone, listening wihtout a clock and without anticipation of results, teaches us about love. The success of love is in the loving -- it is not in the result of loving. These words, taken from the book A Simple Path, are the words of one of the Missionaries of Charity Sisters, not of Mother Teresa.”
