5.0 out of 5 stars Beautiful, Inspiring Compilation, January 26, 2004
By Graciela Sholander "Co-author of Dream It Do ... (Fort Collins, CO United States) - See all my reviews
(REAL NAME)   
This collection of Mother Teresa's own words was compiled by a journalist who knew her personally. The quotes are practical and spiritual, like the saint herself. They're arranged within several categories, including Holiness, Generosity, and Life And Death. One of my favorite Mother Teresa quotes from the book: "Some remind me of what a magazine once said about me; it described me as a "living saint." If someone sees God in me, I am happy. I see God in everyone, and especially in those who suffer." Be sure to read the Introduction for a brief account of her remarkable life. Each chapter begins with a photo of Mother Teresa in her work. Whatever your religion or faith, race or color, you will draw both inspiration and hope from this holy woman's heartfelt words.

4.0 out of 5 stars Inspirational, January 15, 2002
By The Rev. Dr. Daniel J. G. G. Block (Medford, Wisconsin United States) - See all my reviews
This is not the book to read if you are seeking great literature. All that you will find here is simple, honest spirituality.

Read this little book only if you can endure being shamed. Read it only if you are strong enough to face the truth that none of us is whom God intended us to be. None of us is whom we were meant to be: whom we can be.

Read this little book if you wish to be inspired by the saint's musings to become more than you already are.

4.0 out of 5 stars Good Collection of Mother Teresa Quotes, May 8, 2001
By "scoobra" (Nashville, TN USA) - See all my reviews
If you are looking for a concise collection of Mother Teresa quotes, this is a great choice. It is well organized with some of her best wisdom. If you are looking for more than a collection of quotes, then I recommend (as I have in other reviews of Mother Teresa books) that you start with "No Greater Love". That book remains my favorite book of her wisdom.
