Don�t worry about knowing people

      just make yourself worth knowing.

When you ask how someone�s doing

     wait to listen to the answer.

Pick your friends,

     but never pick them to pieces!

A good friend is one who keeps up with you

     but never looks down on you.

Deal with the faults of your friends

     as gently as if they were your own.

The reason a dog is everyone�s friend is

     he wags his tail and not his tongue.

Anyone can give advice,

     but a real friend will lend a helping hand.

The best possession you can have is a true friend.

�Sharan Pal Sandhu

Thus spoke Mother Teresa

� Give yourself fully to God. He will use you to accomplish great things on the condition that you believe much more in his love than in your weakness.

� The poor don�t need pity. They need love and compassion. If you don�t know them you don�t love them and don�t serve them.

� Happiness is the sign of a generous person. It is often the mantle of self-sacrifice.

� The fruit of silence is prayer, the fruit of prayer is faith, the fruit of faith is love, the fruit of love is service, the fruit of service is peace.
