Jean Vanier
“Many people are good at talking about what they are doing, but in fact do little. Others do a lot but don't talk about it; they are the ones who make a community live.”
― Jean Vanier, Community and Growth

Jean Vanier
“When people love each other, they are content with very little. When we have light and joy in our hearts, we don't need material wealth. The most loving communities are often the poorest. If our own life is luxurious and wasteful, we can't approach poor people. If we love people, we want to identify with them and share with them.”
― Jean Vanier, Community and Growth

Jean Vanier
“Every human activity can be put at the service of the divine and of love. We should all exercise our gift to build community.”
― Jean Vanier, Community and Growth

Mother Teresa
“Kind words can be short and easy to speak, but their echoes are truly endless.”
― Mother Teresa

Brother Lawrence
“We ought not to be weary of doing little things for the love of God, who regards not the greatness of the work, but the love with which it is performed.”
― Brother Lawrence, The Practice of the Presence of God
