(You can read what others have had to say on the subject if you like:) >>>
Three things in human life are important.
The first is to be kind.
The second is to be kind.
The third is to be kind.
Kindness in words creates confidence.
Kindness in thinking creates profundity.
Kindness in giving creates love.
Kindness is more important than wisdom, and the recognition of this is the beginning of wisdom.
When I was young, I used to admire intelligent people; as I grow older, I admire kind people.
When we feel love and kindness toward others, it not only makes others feel loved and cared for, but it helps us also to develop inner happiness and peace.
Responsibility does not only lie with the leaders of our countries or with those who have been appointed or elected to do a particular job. It lies with each of us individually. Peace, for example, starts within each one of us. When we have inner peace, we can be at peace with those around us.
This is my simple religion. There is no need for temples; no need for complicated philosophy. Our own brain, our own heart is our temple; the philosophy is kindness.
You cannot do a kindness too soon, for you never know how soon it will be too late.
Always set high value on spontaneous kindness. He whose inclination prompts him to cultivate your friendship of his own accord will love you more than one whom you have been at pains to attach to you.
The little unremembered acts of kindness and love are the best parts of a person's life.
Remember there's no such thing as a small act of kindness. Every act creates a ripple with no logical end.
When kindness has left people, even for a few moments, we become afraid of them as if their reason had left them. When it has left a place where we have always found it, it is like shipwreck; we drop from security into something malevolent and bottomless.
