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.
Even the rich are hungry for love, for being cared for, for being wanted, for having someone to call their own.
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.
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.
Jesus said love one another. He didn't say love the whole world.
Loneliness and the feeling of being unwanted is the most terrible poverty.
One of the greatest diseases is to be nobody to anybody.
The hunger for love is much more difficult to remove than the hunger for bread.
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.
