Words worth keeping

When I'm good, I'm very good, but when I'm bad, I'm better.

Help others without any reason and give without the expectation of receiving anything in return.

Do not spoil what you have by desiring what you have not; remember that what you now have was once among the things you only hoped for.

For me, I am driven by two main philosophies: know more today about the world than I knew yesterday and lessen the suffering of others. You'd be surprised how far that gets you.

Let the first act of every morning be to make the following resolve for the day:- I shall not fear anyone on Earth. - I shall fear only God. - I shall not bear ill will toward anyone. - I shall not submit to injustice from anyone. - I shall conquer untruth by truth. And in resisting untruth, I shall put up with all suffering.

I hope you will have a wonderful year, that you'll dream dangerously and outrageously, that you'll make something that didn't exist before you made it, that you will be loved and that you will be liked, and that you will have people to love and to like in return. And, most importantly (because I think there should be more kindness and more wisdom in the world right now), that you will, when you need to be, be wise, and that you will always be kind.

To err is human, to forgive, divine.

No one has ever become poor by giving.

Be thankful for everything that happens in your life; it’s all an experience.

Compassion is the basis of morality.

Kindness is a language which the deaf can hear and the blind can see.

Do your little bit of good where you are; it's those little bits of good put together that overwhelm the world.

Any fool knows men and women think differently at times, but the biggest difference is this. Men forget, but never forgive; women forgive, but never forget.

Great things happen to those who don't stop believing, trying, learning, and being grateful.

Always find opportunities to make someone smile, and to offer random acts of kindness in everyday life.
