1 " If we have no peace, it is because we have forgotten that we belong to each other. "
― Mother Teresa
2 " It's not how much we give but how much love we put into giving. "
3 " The greatest disease in the West today is not TB or leprosy; it is being unwanted, unloved, and uncared for. We can cure physical diseases with medicine, but the only cure for loneliness, despair, and hopelessness is love. There are many in the world who are dying for a piece of bread but there are many more dying for a little love. The poverty in the West is a different kind of poverty -- it is not only a poverty of loneliness but also of spirituality. There's a hunger for love, as there is a hunger for God. "
― Mother Teresa , A Simple Path

7 " Let us always meet each other with smile, for the smile is the beginning of love. "
8 " Love is not patronizing and charity isn't about pity, it is about love. Charity and love are the same -- with charity you give love, so don't just give money but reach out your hand instead. "
9 " Love is a fruit in season at all times and within reach of every hand. "
10 " A joyful heart is the normal result of a heart burning with love. She gives most who gives with joy. "
