goodness

Preaching vs Teaching:The difference between preaching and teaching: one makes you feel good, the other makes you grow.

God's grace is everything we need. The seed of all goodness.

Have you ever considered another type of loneliness; a good and healthy, happy loneliness?

Be good and you will be lonesome.

Our goodness is our wealth and when we close our eyes to the tragedies of the hard lives, we start losing our wealth!

Oh! if the good hearts had the fat purses, how much better everything would go!

wealth does not bring goodness, but goodness brings wealth and every other blessing, both to the individual and to the state

Il n'est si homme de bien, qu'il mette _ l'examen des loix toutes ses actions et pensées, qui ne soit pendable dix fois en sa vie.(There is no man so good that if he placed all his actions and thoughts under the scrutiny of the laws, he would not deserve hanging ten times in his life.)

Every good thing begins with one positive thought.

Kind words are sweet to the soul.

You will find two kinds of people in the world. Some say that there are the bad and the good. But it isn__ like that. Since what is good for one may be bad for another. No, that doesn__ work. You have to depend on your intuition.__here are those who make you feel inside as if you are drinking a good, warm soup _ even if you are hungry and the two of you have nothing to eat. In spite of that they nourish you.__nd then there are those who cause you to freeze inside, even if you are sitting before a roaring fire and have eaten your fill. Those you should keep away from. They are not good for you, even though others might say that they are good people_

I hope you will grow up gentle and good, and never learn bad ways; do your work with a good will, lift your feet up well when you trot, and never bite or kick even in play.

Is there a definition of a truly good person? .... Many say that "Nice guys finish last", that "kindness is weakness", and so on. To those of you who are told "Your too nice" or you tell yourself that. That is something to hold on to! So many people say "screw it" I can't be walked on or treated this way. So they become what they think is "tough" ,"smarter" or it's just easier. It's really not. Because even though you think you get "respect" you had to sacrifice the good part of who you are for it.

A piece of benevolence, a shard of good will is sometimes all that is needed to raise a truly loyal army.

Give joy, smiles, happiness, goodness and kindness to every person you meet.

Kindness is all we have to give others

History is so comprehensive and detailed. I couldn't be a history student. I thought there was a time when I couldn't be a history maker, because of my limited understanding of what that meant. Today, thinking about the passing of Julian Bond and a wonderful conversation with a woman who has influenced so much, I think we all are history makers. All of our names will not be as known as Mr. Bond's or in books, but our names will be on someone's tongue and our memories will be in someone's heart, and we will all be a part of someone's personal story. We have a unique opportunity at this very second to change how we affect someone's life as living history and historians. Flaws and all. Yep.

They truly embodied goodness and generosity _ like angels sent to save me in my hour of greatest need. Mohammed had risked everything to keep a promise to my father. He and his family saved not only my life, but also my faith in others.
