Her words and actions have inspired millions of people from every race and religion and country to help the poor and needy, a legacy that is her gift to all mankind for generations to come. From 1950, when she founded the order of Missionaries of Charity, to winning the Nobel Peace Prize in 1979, and then, in 1985, being awarded the Medal of Freedom—the United States' highest civilian award—to her final days, Mother Teresa served the world as a beacon shedding the light of hope, comfort, and peace on all. Mother Teresa: In My Own Words is a timeless testament to the power of her words. Here are the same quotes, stories, and prayers that helped strengthen and inspire the poor, the dying, the suffering, and the doubting who she met during her lifetime, and that will continue to strengthen and inspire all who read them. | | | Product Details: | | | Author:

Great collection of Mother Teresa quotesMay 18, 2009 I, like many others I'm sure, feel that Mother Teresa was a great person. This book is full of quotes from her. It is awe-inspiring to me that she did such great things and was as humble about what she was doing as she was.
While reading these quotes I was struck by how simple the things she said truly were, yet in their simplicity lies their magnitude. She wasn't helping the poor because it made her a better person, she was helping the poor because it was what she was needed to do to strengthen her relationship with Jesus. Many times she mentions that she helps the poor because the poor are Jesus, and by helping them she is helping Jesus.
Reading these quotes from her was quite touching. I hope that by listening to the message that she was conveying that I can become a better person.
Great BookApr 05, 2009 This book can help one see things in a different light. It makes you appreciate the things you make take for granted. Great book.
Mother TeresaFeb 02, 2009 A very simple easy to read book. Insights into the kind of lifestyle she lived and the people she worked with and tended. It gives a real picture of poverty that is not often seen, by most of us.
