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

Being unwanted, unloved, uncared for, forgotten by everybody, I think that is a much greater hunger, a much greater poverty than the person who has nothing to eat.

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

Do not wait for leaders; do it alone, person to person.

Each one of them is Jesus in disguise.

Everybody today seems to be in such a terrible rush, anxious for greater developments and greater riches and so on, so that children have very little time for their parents. Parents have very little time for each other, and in the home begins the disruption of peace of the world.

Everytime you smile at someone, it is an action of love, a gift to that person, a beautiful thing.

Good works are links that form a chain of love.

I am a little pencil in the hand of a writing God who is sending a love letter to the world.

I am not sure exactly what heaven will be like, but I don't know that when we die and it comes time for God to judge us, he will NOT ask, How many good things have you done in your life?, rather he will ask, How much LOVE did you put into what you did?

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

I have found the paradox, that if you love until it hurts, there can be no more hurt, only more love.

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

I think I'm more difficult than critical.

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.

I want you to be concerned about your next door neighbor. Do you know your next door neighbor?

If we have no peace, it is because we have forgotten that we belong to each other.

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.

If you can't feed a hundred people, then feed just one.

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

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.

In this life we cannot do great things. We can only do small things with great love.

Intense love does not measure, it just gives.

It is a kingly act to assist the fallen.

It is easy to love the people far away. It is not always easy to love those close to us. It is easier to give a cup of rice to relieve hunger than to relieve the loneliness and pain of someone unloved in our own home. Bring love into your home for this is where our love for each other must start.

It is impossible to walk rapidly and be unhappy.

It is not the magnitude of our actions but the amount of love that is put into them that matters.

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

Joy is a net of love by which you can catch souls.

Kind words can be short and easy to speak, but their echoes are truly endless.

Let us always meet each other with smile, for the smile is the beginning of love.

Let us more and more insist on raising funds of love, of kindness, of understanding, of peace. Money will come if we seek first the Kingdom of God - the rest will be given.

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.

Let us touch the dying, the poor, the lonely and the unwanted according to the graces we have received and let us not be ashamed or slow to do the humble work.

Loneliness and the feeling of being unwanted is the most terrible poverty.

Loneliness is the most terrible poverty.

Love begins at home, and it is not how much we do... but how much love we put in that action.

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

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

Many people mistake our work for our vocation. Our vocation is the love of Jesus.

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

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.

Peace begins with a smile.

So many signatures for such a small heart.

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

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.

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

The hunger for love is much more difficult to remove than the hunger for bread.

The miracle is not that we do this work, but that we are happy to do it.

The most terrible poverty is loneliness and the feeling of being unloved.

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.

There are no great things, only small things with great love. Happy are those.

There is always the danger that we may just do the work for the sake of the work. This is where the respect and the love and the devotion come in - that we do it to God, to Christ, and that's why we try to do it as beautifully as possible.

There is more hunger in the world for love and appreciation in this world than for bread.

There should be less talk; a preaching point is not a meeting point. What do you do then? Take a broom and clean someone's house. That says enough.

We are all pencils in the hand of God.

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

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.

We ourselves feel that what we are doing is just a drop in the ocean. But the ocean would be less because of that missing drop.

We shall never know all the good that a simple smile can do.

We think sometimes that poverty is only being hungry, naked and homeless. The poverty of being unwanted, unloved and uncared for is the greatest poverty. We must start in our own homes to remedy this kind of poverty.

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.

Words which do not give the light of Christ increase the darkness.

Quotations from Albert Einstein
* Authority is the greatest enemy of truth
* Politics is for the present, but equations are something for eternity
* Great spirits have always encountered violent opposition from mediocre minds.
* If I were wrong, then one would have been enough!(In response to Nazi 100 Authors Against Einstein).
* The strongest motive leading men to art and science is the desire to escape the rawness and monotony of everyday life, so as to take refuge in a world crowded with images of his own creation
* What a man is contributes much more to his happiness than what he has, or how he is regarded by others (A. Schopenhauer)
* We know from daily life that we exist for other people - first of all for those upon whose smiles and well-being our own happiness is wholly dependent
* In the service of life, sacrifice becomes grace
* In science the greatest thoughts are the simplest thoughts
* In our daily lives we only feel that man is here for the sake of others, for those whom we love and for many other beings whose fate is connected to our own. The most beautiful and deepest experience a man can have is the sense of the mysterious. It is the underlying principle of religion as well as all serious endeavors in art and science. He who never had this experience seems to me, if not dead, then at least blind.
------------------------------------------------------------------------
* This 'shuddering before the beautiful,' this incredible fact that a discovery motivated by a search after the beautiful in mathematics should find its exact replica in Nature, persuades me to say that beauty is that to which the human mind responds at its deepest and most profound - S. Chandrasekhar (upon encountering a theory of rotating black holes by New Zealander Roy Kerr)
* Anyone who is not shocked by quantum theory has not understood it - Niels Bohr, early 20th century
* Who is to choose how to use science? Are we to leave the choice and our future in the hands of some elite? Or shall we participate in it? - Isaac Asimov
* Science has provided us with the weapons to fight poverty, hunger and disease but the capitalist system has been unable to wield these to end humanity's problems, simply because of its profit orientation and the concentration of resources in a few hands
* A contradiction - where an immovable force meets an immovable object.
* Do not go gently into that good night. Rage, rage against the dying of the light - Dylan Thomas

A scene from "Braveheart"
William Wallace: You've come to fight as free men...and free men you are. What will you do without freedom? Will you fight?
Scot (considering the specter of fighting an army many times larger and more powerful than his own): Against them? No! We will run and we will live!
Wallace: Aye. Fight and you may die. Run and you will live - at least a while. And dying in your beds, many years from now, would you be willing to trade all of this - from this day to that - for one chance, just one chance, to come back here and tell our enemies that they may take our lives, but they'll never take our freedom!!
------------------------------------------------------------------------
Scene from "Michael Collins"
Collins: They can jail us, they can shoot us, they can even conscript us, they can use us as cannon fodder. But we have a weapon more powerful than any in the whole earth, and that weapon is our refusal. Our refusal to bow to any order but our own, any institution but our own. Our friends in the Irish Constabulary would like to shut me up, to jail me again, shoot me , who knows. But I'd like you to send them a message. If they shut me up, who will take my place?
