Best Answer

Mother Teresa of Calcutta: "By blood, I am Albanian. By citizenship, an Indian. By faith, I am a Catholic nun. As to my calling, I belong to the world. As to my heart, I belong entirely to the Heart of Jesus." (That means that she was an ethnic Albanian. Her birth name was an Albanian name, Agnes Gonxha Bojaxhiu, but she changed it to Mother Teresa.)
