Short Link to this Quote:
Mother Teresa said she tries to give to the poor “for love what the rich could get for money” because she believed that while the rich can use money to purchase things to meet their needs and desires, the poor do not have money and must rely on the love and charity of others to have their basic needs met.
Her mission was to help the poor with compassion and love rather than simply giving them money. She wanted to convey that her motivation for helping the poor came from her care and concern for their well-being rather than any financial transaction.
