St. Mother Teresa Quote - Wall Art – 8.5x11" – Catholic Art Print – Authentic Quote

Saint Teresa of Calcutta was an inspiration to the whole world, Catholic or not! She founded a beautiful order of men and women who follow her example of living with and giving care to the poorest of the poor. She called her order the Missionaries of Charity. They are all over the world now, not just in India, where Mother Teresa began.

While she was head of the Missionaries of Charity, Mother Teresa kept a list of ways to cultivate humility for the sisters in her care.

"Speak as little as possible about yourself.
Keep busy with your own affairs and not those of others.
Avoid curiosity (she is referring to wanting to know things that should not concern you.)
Do not interfere in the affairs of others.
Accept small irritations with good humor.
Do not dwell on the faults of others.
Accept censures even if unmerited.
Give in to the will of others.
Accept insults and injuries.
Accept contempt, being forgotten and disregarded.
Be courteous and delicate even when provoked by someone.
Do not seek to be admired and loved.
Do not protect yourself behind your own dignity.
Give in, in discussions, even when you are right.
Choose always the more difficult task."

The Power of Humility "It was pride that changed angels into devils; it is humility that makes men as angels." -Saint Augustine
