I want to be like the patron saint of reality.

I have always wanted to become a saint. Unfortunately, when I have compared myself with the saints, I have always found that there is the same difference between the saints and me as there is between a mountain whose summit is lost in the clouds and a humble grain of sand trodden underfoot by passers-by.

The creed of a true saint is to make the best of life, and to make the most of it.

A saint is a person who gives of themself without asking for anything in return. That's how simple it is to be a saint. Try it! Try being a saint.

You don't become a saint until you lead a good life whether in Tibet or Italy or America.

I wish people wouldn't think of me as a saint - unless they agree with the definition of a saint that a saint's a sinner who goes on trying.

I have quite a strong sense of wanting to sort of, wanting to help others. I'm not claiming I'm a saint, but I have a genuine, genuine belief in trying to help others.

To be a great man and a saint for oneself, that is the only important thing.

My ultimate goal... is for you to live the life you're intended to live.
