Famous quotes containing the words mother teresa, mother and/or teresa:

    If there are people who feel that God wants them to change the structures of society, that is something between them and their God. We must serve him in whatever way we are called.

    “A baby’s crying!
    Frantic it sounds, though muffled and far off.
    Its mother wouldn’t let it cry like that,
    Not if she’s there.”
    Robert Frost (1874–1963)

    Sweetest Lord, make me appreciative of the dignity of my high vocation, and its many responsibilities. Never permit me to disgrace it by giving way to coldness, unkindness, or impatience.
    —Mother Teresa (b. 1910)
