“But deep this truth impress'd my mind:
Thro' all His works abroad,
The heart benevolent and kind
The most resembles God.” - Robert Burns
“The real trouble is that 'kindness' is a quality fatally easy to attribute to ourselves on quite inadequate grounds. Everyone feels benevolent if nothing happens to be annoying him at the moment. Thus a man easily comes to console himself for all his other vices by a conviction that 'his heart's in the right place' and 'he wouldn't hurt a fly,' though in fact he has never made the slightest sacrifice for a fellow creature."- C.S. Lewis
“When we live in the love of God, we begin to pay attention to people the way God pays attention to us.” - John Ortberg
"Most people think I'm crazy—I'm in a cult called happiness, I practice the religion of kindness, I'm a quack in the pseudoscience of love, I work in the field of unlimited possibilities, my diet is that of knowledge, my orientation is irrelevant, my purpose is growth, my entitlement is freedom, my motivation is joy, my evidence is my success, and my race is humankind—I still haven't figured out the crazy part.” - Drew Gerald
“A glass of water has no value on its own, but the moment it quenches the thirst of an exhausted person, it turns more valuable than gold. Be a glass of water and quench the thirst of others. A glass of water doesn’t need any fancy introduction to be hailed important, it doesn't need pomp and ceremony to be seen as significant, it doesn’t need any fancy attire to appear appealing, all it needs to do is be there for the thirsty.” - Abhijit Naskar
“We are most ourselves, the most human, when we unabashedly immerse ourselves in the world with love and hope, gratitude and kindness.” - John Sean Doyle
“Never ever hurt anyone in this journey. We are all travelers and we must carry kindness in our baggage!”
― Avijeet Das
“Kindness is probably the most underrated human quality. We tend to dismiss it when we come across it and seek out more exciting character traits. But kindness is often a refined form of courage. It brings light and warmth into the world. You should always value kindness when you find it.” - Glenn Haybittle
“We can make a difference in another person's life in any situation we find ourselves in, sometimes by the most seemingly insignificant acts of kindness.” Paul Holton
“You can make people feel good with a smile or a thoughtful gesture. You have that infinite power. Holding the door for someone can change their day. Kind words can change their life.” - Jolene Stockman
“Compassion is the artwork of tuning the individual plans with the grand plan of the existence.” - Amit Ray (Walking the Path of Compassion)
“Use your voice for good in this world~ There are many who tear down, but it's those who build up that truly touch hearts & transform lives.” - Heather Wolf
“The world is hurting, yet people are still aggressive and unkind.” - Nurudeen Ushawu
"Beginning today, treat everyone you meet as if they are going to be dead by midnight. Extend to them all the care, kindness & understanding you can muster, and do it with no thought of reward. Your life will never be the same again" -Og Mandino-
“I expect to pass through life but once. If therefore, there be any kindness I can show, or any good thing I can do to any -fellow being, let me do it now, and not defer or neglect it, as I shall not pass this way again.” -Wm. Penn-
