We cannot do great proverb

 We cannot do great things on this Earth, only small things with great love.

 What I do you cannot do; but what you do, I cannot do. The needs are great, and none of us, including me, ever do great things. But we can all do small things, with great love, and together we can do something wonderful.
  Mother Teresa of Calcutta

 In this life we cannot do great things. We can only do small things with great love.

 There are no great things, only small things with great love. Happy are those.

 He felt with the force of a revelation that to throw up the clods of earth manfully is as beneficent as to revolutionize the world. It was not the matter of the work, but the mind that went into it, that counted -- and the man who was not content to do small things well would leave great things undone.
  Ellen Glasgow

 We can do no great things; only small things with great love.
  Mother Teresa of Calcutta

 I believe that it may happen that one will succeed, and one must not begin to despair, even though defeated here and there; and even though one sometimes feels a kind of decay, though things go differently from the expected, it is necessary to take heart again and new courage. For the great things are not done by impulse, but by a series of small things brought together. And great things are not something accidental, but must certainly be willed. What is drawing? How does one learn it? It is working through an invisible iron wall that seems to stand between what one feels and what one can do.
  Vincent van Gogh

 Ah! you are so great, and I am so small,
I tremble to think of you, World, at all;
And yet, when I said my prayers to-day,
A whisper inside me seemed to say,
"You are more than the earth, though you are such a dot;
You can love and think, and the earth cannot!"


 Acting without design, occupying oneself without making a business of it, finding the great in what is small and the many in the few, repaying injury with kindness, effecting difficult things while they are easy, and managing great things in their be

 He had great charisma and he had great love for people in general, and a great regard for young people, ... He had real faith and real fervor, and he was a man of God. He did some great things, some controversial things.

 I just love the design, and of course I love the materials. These things are dug out of the earth ... it's so incredible to me that these aren't man-made things. They're beautiful things.

 It was pretty neat, really. I think it was Benjamin Franklin who said 'Small things seem great to people of small circumstances.' That seemed like a pretty great thing to me. It was a tremendous compliment. I took it that way. I've never seen anything like that in this league.

 There will still be things that machines cannot do. They will not produce great art or great literature or great philosophy; they will not be able to discover the secret springs of happiness in the human heart; they will know nothing of love and friendship.
  Bertrand Russell

 The world thinks eccentricity in great things is genius, but in small things, only crazy
  Edward G. Bulwer-Lytton
