“Our prime purpose in this life is to help others. And if you can't
help them, at least don't hurt them.”
“It's that wonderful old-fashioned idea that others come first and
you come second. This was the whole ethic by which I was brought up. Others
matter more than you do, so 'don't fuss, dear; get on with it'.”
“It is under the greatest adversity that there exists the greatest
potential for doing good, both for oneself and others.”
Love is as simple as the absence of self- given to another. God, when
invited, fills the void of any unrequited love; hence loving is how one is
drawn closer to God no matter its most horrific repercussions.”
“Give until it hurts.”
“We are formed and molded by our thoughts. Those whose minds are
shaped by selfless thoughts give joy when they speak or act. Joy follows them
like a shadow that never leaves them.”
“For those who wish to climb the mountain of spiritual awareness, the
path is selfless work. For those who have attained the summit of union with the
Lord, the path is stillness and peace.”
“Automobiles are free of egotism, passion, prejudice and stupid ideas
about where to have dinner. They are, literally, selfless. A world designed for
automobiles instead of people would have wider streets, larger dining rooms,
fewer stairs to climb and no smelly, dangerous subway stations.”
“For the progress of humanity, work alone is not adequate, but the
work should be associated with love, compassion, right conduct, truthfulness
and sympathy. Without the above qualities, selfless service cannot be
performed.”
“In love lies the seed of our growth. The more we love, the closer we
are to the spiritual experience.” – Paulo Coehlo
“We can do no great things, only small things with great love.” –Mother Theresa
“Hatred does not cease by hatred, but only by love; this is the
eternal rule.” – Buddha
