Mother Teresa Fake Quote. “People are often unreasonable…”

mtersaHere is the latest Internet hoax and  the photo that comes with it.  Facebook morons are pumping these out faster than the Franklin Mint pushes out worthless 9-11 memorabilia.

MOTHER TERESA NEVER SAID THIS!  IT’S EVEN ADDRESSED THERE IN BLACK AND WHITE ON HER OFFICIAL WEBSITE.  IT LISTS THE FAKE QUOTES AND THIS IS ONE OF THEM.  HOW FRIGGING HARD IS IT TO LOOK SOMETHING UP BEFORE YOU SHARE IT WITH THE REST OF YOUR MORONIC FACEBOOK SIMPLETONS?

This quote, printed over a photograph of Mother Teresa, is floating around on Facebook.  It is inspiring millions of simple-minded Facebookers — but there’s a problem.  SHE NEVER SAID IT!   There is no record of the Mother Teresa ever saying this and on her official website, this quote is singled out as one of the fakest.   Here is the page Das Quota  If that one doesn’t work, the reprint of the page is printed at the bottom of this.
Devout followers of the Mother Teresa have been trying to tell people in social media for years that this quote not genuine, but we live in the day where all one needs to do is put something up on Facebook and it becomes the law of the land — at least where idiots are concerned.
Why do people on Facebook fall for this baloney?  Last year it was the fake quote attributed to Betty White about testicles and vaginas.  Last month it was all about fake Robin Williams quotes,  and this week it’s about the Mother Teresa crock of bull.
All you need is to be vaguely familiar with how to use the internet — how to research something —  to know that this is not true,   I hate to tell all you people who have been magically hoisted onto a heavenly plane by this quote that it is 100% not true.  MOTHER TERESA NEVER SAID IT.

Please be advised that Mother Teresa did not say or write the following:

People are often unreasonable, illogical, and self-centered; Forgive them anyway. If you are kind, People may accuse you of selfish, ulterior motives; Be kind anyway. If you are successful, you will win some false friends and some true enemies; Succeed anyway. If you are honest and frank, People may cheat you; Be honest and frank anyway. What you spend years building, someone could destroy overnight; Build anyway. If you find serenity and happiness, They may be jealous; Be happy anyway. The good you do today, people will often forget tomorrow; Do good anyway.http://www.motherteresa.org/08_info/Quotesf.html

  1. The Paradoxical Commandments were written by Kent M. Keith in 1968 as part of a booklet for student leaders. Mother Teresa thought the Paradoxical Commandments were important enough to put up on the wall of her children’s home in Calcutta.

  2. Who cares if it is a fake quote? They are wonderful words anyway and worth to be shared and spread.
    Spread nice words and you will be criticized. Spread them anyway!

  3. Alfredo — “who cares if it is a fake quote.” How fucking stupid are you? The reason something is called a QUOTE is because it was said by someone — and the quote is attributed to that person for a REASON.

    What if I said, “Alfredo is male prostitute but he provides a great service for the horny men in his town.” ??? Then – with that quote, I put a picture of your father – implying that he made the quote? Would you say, “who cares” then? What the fuck is wrong with this social media culture that morons like you populate it and do not understand the fundamental concepts of how people are supposed to communicate? I am going to let you slide because my best guess is that you’re a simpleton.

  4. Apparently all the other morons agree with Alfredo. I very politely told a girl on IG that this was a fake quote and got numerous profanities, fingers, and name calling.

    I guess morons got to defend morons.
