Personality and personal identity are in some ways like coordinates on the street map drawn by our intersecting relationships. We know who we are and we define what we are by references to the people we love and our reasons for loving them

- from the book 'Shantaram'

At first, when we truely love someone, our greatest fear is that the loved one will stop loving us. What we should fear and dread, of course, is that we won't stop loving them, even after they're dead and gone.

- from the book 'Shantaram'

You measure yourself by the people who measure themselves by you.

-from 'The Bucket List'

We ourselves feel that what we are doing is just a drop in the ocean.  But the ocean would be less because of that missing drop. 

-Mother Teresa

It is not the magnitude of our actions but the amount of love that is put into them that matters.

-Mother Teresa
