Kindness
is seldom thrown away, and there is no creature so much below another but that
he may have it in his power to return a good office.
- Aesop’s Fables
Kindness
will always attract kindness.
I
shall pass through this world but once. Any
good, therefore, that I can do or any kindness that I can show any human being,
let me do it now. Let me not deter
or neglect it, for I shall not pass this way again.
- Stephen Grellett
Guard
well within yourself that treasure, kindness.
Know how to give without hesitation, how to lose without regret, how to
acquire without meanness.
- George Sand
Do
what you can to show you care about other people, and you will make our world a
better place.
- Rosalynn Carter
To
excel is to reach your own highest dream. But
you must also help others, where and when you can, to reach theirs.
Personal gain is empty if you do not feel you have positively touched
another’s life.
Good
words are worth much, and cost little.
- George Herbert
How
far that little candle throws his beams!
So shines a good deed in a naughty world.
- William Shakespeare, The Merchant of Venice, Act V, Scene I; [Portia]
Constant
kindness can accomplish much. As
the sun makes ice melt, kindness causes misunderstanding, mistrust, and
hostility to evaporate.
- Dr. Albert Schweitzer
A kiss is a lovely trick designed by nature to stop speech when
words become superfluous.

Ingrid Bergman
The decision to kiss for the first time is the most crucial in any love
story. It changes the relationship of two people much more strongly than
even the final surrender; because this kiss already has within it that
surrender.
- Emil Ludwig (1881-1948)
The
only people who achieve much are those who want knowledge so badly that they
seek it while the conditions are still unfavorable. Favorable conditions never come.
- C.S. Lewis
I attribute the
little I know to my not having been ashamed to ask for information and to my
rule of conversing with all descriptions of men on those topics that form their
own peculiar professions and pursuits.
- John Locke
It is only when we forget all our learning that we begin to know.
- Henry David Thoreau
People who know
little are usually great talkers, while men who know much say little.
- Jean Jacques Rousseau
