About this title: Mother Teresa was not an author but a person who lived and worked intensely, and who gave up her life on behalf of others, often the poorest of the poor. Most of the words in this book were spoken to her fellow religious and the co-workers at her mission, or in more or less formal lectures, interviews and public occasions. To ensure that the echoes of her words are stronger, the compiler (a close colleague of Mother Teresa's from the earliest days of her mission) has gathered these texts, the truth of which Mother Teresa lived before her words were ever uttered or written.

"I have such a wide interest. Was in the library saw this on the new shelf and thought I would give it a try as I have always respected Mother Teresa. Now I have lots of great quotes that I will put in my book of quotes"
"I, like many others I'm sure, feel that Mother Teresa was a great person. This book is full of quotes from her. It is awe-inspiring to me that she did such great things and was as humble about what she was doing as she was.
While reading these quotes I was struck by how simple the things she said truly were, yet in their simplicity lies their magnitude. She wasn't helping the poor because it made her a better person, she was helping the poor because it was what she was needed to do to strengthen her relationship with Jesus. Many times she mentions that she helps the poor because the poor are Jesus, and by helping them she is helping Jesus.
Reading these quotes from her was quite touching. I hope that by listening to the message that she was conveying that I can become a better person."
