Do not think that love, in order to be genuine, has to be extraordinary. What we need is to love without getting tired.

   

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

   

The success of love is in the loving - it is not in the result of loving. Of course it is natural in love to want the best for the other person, but whether it turns out that way or not does not determine the value of what we have done.

   

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.

   

Love begins by taking care of the closest ones - the ones at home.

   

One of the greatest diseases is to be nobody to anybody.

   

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.

   

We can do no great things, only small things with great love.

   

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.

   

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

   

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.

   

I do not pray for success, I ask for faithfulness.

   

I know God will not give me anything I can't handle. I just wish that He didn't trust me so much.

   

If we want a love message to be heard, it has got to be sent out. To keep a lamp burning, we have to keep putting oil in it.

   

The biggest disease today is not leprosy or tuberculosis, but rather the feeling of being unwanted.

   

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

   

Jesus said love one another. He didn't say love the whole world.

   

Loneliness is the most terrible poverty.

   

If you want a love message to be heard, it has got to be sent out. To keep a lamp burning, we have to keep putting oil in it.

   

If you judge people, you have no time to love them.
