One must really have suffered oneself to help others.
I feel called to help individuals, to love each human being. I never think in terms of crowds in general but in terms of persons. Were I to think about crowds, I would never begin anything.
Don't expect your friend to be a perfect person. Help your friend to become a perfect person. That is true friendship
I can't help thousands, I can help only the one who stands before me.
Helping hands are better than Praying Lips
Charity isn't about pity, it is about love.
The biggest disease today is not leprosy or tuberculosis, but rather the feeling of being unwanted.
Love is not patronizing and charity isn't about pity, it is about love. Charity and love are the same -- with charity you give love, so don't just give money but reach out your hand instead.
One truly must have suffered oneself to help others.
Live simply so others may simply live.
At the heart of silence is prayer. At the heart of prayer is faith. At the heart of faith is life. At the heart of life is service.
Never worry about numbers. Help one person at a time and always start with the person nearest you.
People are unreasonable, illogical, and self-centered. Love them anyway.
We, the unwilling,led by the unknowing,are doing the impossible for the ungrateful. We have done so much,for so long,with so little,we are now qualified to do anything with nothing.
