Famous Quotes by Mother Teresa


Be faithful in small things because it is in them that your strength lies. 


We need to find God, and he cannot be found in noise and restlessness. God is the friend of silence. See how nature - trees, flowers, grass- grows in silence; see the stars, the moon and the sun, how they move in silence... We need silence to be able to touch souls.


Spread love everywhere you go. Let no one ever come to you without leaving happier.


Loneliness and the feeling of being unwanted is the most terrible poverty. 


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. 


Love is a fruit in season at all times, and within reach of every hand.

QUOTES ...


If we could see the miracle of a single flower clearly, our whole life would change.

Holding on to anger is like grasping a hot coal with the intent of throwing it at someone else; you are the one who gets burned

What we think, we become.

We are what we think. All that we are arises with our thoughts. With our thoughts, we make the world.

Meditation brings wisdom; lack of mediation leaves ignorance. Know well what leads you forward and what hold you back, and choose the path that leads to wisdom

Fashion your life as a garland of beautiful deeds.

( - Mahatama Buddha)

OPTIMISM..



If you realized how powerful your thoughts are, you would never think a negative thought.  
-Peace pilgrim
Optimism is the faith that leads to achievement. Nothing can be done without hope and confidence.
 -Hellen killer
A pessimist sees only the dark side of the clouds, and mopes; a philosopher sees both sides, and shrugs; an optimist doesn't see the clouds at all - he's walking on them.  
-Leonard Louis Levinson

DOES MONEY COSTS MORE THAN LIFE?????




Doctors who are called the second God, known for saving the lives of people.... They are only taking away their life???
Ridiculous..
In a shocking incident that has put humanity to shame, a newborn girl child died at a government hospital in Jalandhar (Punjab) after doctors removed her from the incubator because her parents could not pay Rs 200.
The girl child was born on July 20. Being a premature baby, she needed incubator support. However, civil hospital authorities asked her father to arrange money - to pay the electricity charges to run incubator – to continue keeping the baby in incubator. 
A painter by profession, Sanjiv Kumar, could not arrange Rs 200 demanded by the hospital. The poor man asked many people to lend him money but no one came forward to help.
Despite Kumar’s inability to pay Rs 200, hospital authorities, showing no empathy, removed the incubator leading to the death of the baby on Wednesday night.
Kumar said, "The baby was very ill. They (hospital authorities) asked us to deposit Rs 200 first. We begged and pleaded them to admit our child but they refused."
He also alleged that the glucose drip was also removed from the baby for non payment of dues.
The child’s mother Sunita is inconsolable. “They killed my child,” she said.
Hospital CMO says that he can’t believe that an incident like this can happen. He has asked the baby’s father to submit a complaint and then he will look into the matter.


What a shame on our society....
