Spread love everywhere you go. Let no one ever come to you without leaving happier.
I have found the paradox, that if you love until it hurts, there can be no more hurt, only more love.
To keep a lamp burning, we have to keep putting oil in it.
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.
Love begins by taking care of the closest ones - the ones at home.
And so let us always meet each other with a smile, for the smile is the beginning of love, and once we begin to love each other naturally we want to do something.
Love begins at home, and it is not how much we do, but how much love we put in the action that we do.
If you can't feed a hundred people, then feed just one.
The biggest disease today is not leprosy or tuberculosis, but rather the feeling of being unwanted.
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.
There must be a reason why some people can afford to live well. They must have worked for it. I only feel angry when I see waste. When I see people throwing away things we could use.
You can't substitute material things for love or for gentleness or for tenderness or for a sense of comradeship
Recovering in a Calcutta, India hospital. I think I'm more difficult than critical.
These were people so hungry for love that they were accepting substitutes. There were embracing material things and expecting a sort of hug back. But it never works. You can't substitute material things for love or for gentleness or for tenderness or for a sense of comradeship. Money is no substitute for tenderness, and power is not a substitute for tenderness. I can tell you as I'm sitting here dying, when you most need it, neither money nor power will give you the feeling you're looking for, no matter how much of them you have.
The world today is hungry Not only for bread But hungry for love; Hungry to be wanted, Hungry to be loved.
There is no great difference in reality between one country and another, because it is always people you meet everywhere. They may look different or be dressed differently, they may have a different education or position; but they are all the same. They are all people to be loved.
Hungry not only for bread - but hungry for love. Naked not only for clothing - but naked of human dignity and respect. Homeless not only for want of a home of bricks - but homeless because of rejection.
I was always hungry for love. Just once, I wanted to know what it was like to get my fill of it -- to be fed so much love I couldn't take any more. Just once.
Even the rich are hungry for love, for being cared for, for being wanted, for having someone to call their own.
Hungry for love, He looks at you. Thirsty for kindness, He begs of you. Naked for loyalty, He hopes in you. Homeless for shelter in your heart, He asks of you. Will you be that one to Him?
