I want you to be concerned about your next door neighbor. Do you know your next door neighbor?
I try to give to the poor people for love what the rich could get for money. No, I wouldn't touch a leper for a thousand pounds; yet I willingly cure him for the love of God.
The biggest disease today is not leprosy or tuberculosis, but rather the feeling of being unwanted.
One of the greatest diseases is to be nobody to anybody.
Each one of them is Jesus in disguise.
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.
Let us not be satisfied with just giving money. Money is not enough, money can be got, but they need your hearts to love them. So, spread your love everywhere you go.
If you can't feed a hundred people, then feed just one.
Being unwanted, unloved, uncared for, forgotten by everybody, I think that is a much greater hunger, a much greater poverty than the person who has nothing to eat.
Spread love everywhere you go. Let no one ever come to you without leaving happier.
Our life of poverty is as necessary as the work itself. Only in heaven will we see how much we owe to the poor for helping us to love God better because of them.
Love begins at home, and it is not how much we do... but how much love we put in that action.
We think sometimes that poverty is only being hungry, naked and homeless. The poverty of being unwanted, unloved and uncared for is the greatest poverty. We must start in our own homes to remedy this kind of poverty.
I have found the paradox, that if you love until it hurts, there can be no more hurt, only more love.
Intense love does not measure, it just gives.
Many people mistake our work for our vocation. Our vocation is the love of Jesus.
We shall never know all the good that a simple smile can do.
The miracle is not that we do this work, but that we are happy to do it.
