" "

Be kind to each other in your homes. Be kind to those who surround you. I prefer that you make mistakes in kindness rather than that you work miracles in unkindness. Often just for one word, one look, one quick action, and darkness fills the heart of the one we love.

Additional quotes by Mother Teresa

Why must we give ourselves fully to God? Because God has given himself to us. If God who owes nothing to us is ready to impart no less than himself, shall we answer with just a fraction of ourselves? To give ourselves fully to God is a means of receiving God himself.
