The hunger for love is much more difficult to remove than the hunger for bread.

More from Mother Teresa & related wisdom
A destruction only man can provoke, only man can prevent. Mankind must remember that peace is not God's gift to his creatures, it is our gift to each other.
… Freedom is not a state; it is an act. It is not some enchanted garden perched high on a distant plateau where we can finally sit down and rest. Freedom is the continuous action we all must take, and each generation must do its part to create an even more fair, more just society.
If we have no peace, it is because we have forgotten that we belong to each other.
