Get to know the poor in your country. Love them. Serve them.
If there are poor on the moon, we will go there too.
In the poor we meet Jesus in his most distressing disguises.
We must see Christ in the disturbing disguise of the poor.
In the poorest of the poor we see Jesus in distressed guise.
We should not serve the poor like they were Jesus. We should serve the poor because they are Jesus.
Today it is fashionable to talk about the poor. Unfortunately, it is not fashionable to talk with them.
The poorest of the poor are those who feel that they are unloved.
Any country that accepts abortion is the poorest of the poor
The poor are great! The poor are wonderful! The poor are very generous! They give us much more than what we give them.
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.
Much more is accomplished by a single word of the Our Father said, now and then, from our heart, than by the whole prayer repeated many times in haste and without attention.
One must really have suffered oneself to help others.
