The poor are great! The poor are wonderful! The poor are very generous! They give us much more than what we give them

Your true character is most accurately measured by how you treat those who can do ‘Nothing’ for you.

Kind words can be short and easy to speak, but their echoes are truly endless.

If you find happiness, people may be jealous. Be happy anyway.

There is no key to happiness; the door is always open

Let us not use bombs and guns to overcome the world. Let us use love and compassion. Peace begins with a smile

Let us always meet each other with smile, for the smile is the beginning of love.

Smile at each other. Smile at your wife, smile at your husband, smile at your children, smile at each other – it doesn’t matter who it is – and that will help to grow up in greater love for each other

There are no great things, only small things with great love. Happy are those.

At the moment of death we will not be judged according to the number of good deeds we have done or by the diplomas we have received in our lifetime. We will be judged according to the love we have put into our work

If we really want to love we must learn how to forgive.

Jesus said love one another. He didn’t say love the whole world.

There is more hunger in the world for love and appreciation in this world than for bread

If you can’t do great things, do little things with great love. If you can’t do them with great love, do them with a little love. If you can’t do them with a little love, do them anyway

Spread love everywhere you go. Let no one ever come to you without leaving happier.

Even the rich are hungry for love, for being cared for, for being wanted, for having someone to call their own.

I have found the paradox, that if you love until it hurts, there can be no more hurt, only more love

Together we can do great things

I can do things you cannot, you can do things I cannot; together we can do great things

We shall never know all the good that a simple smile can do.

“There were sins whose fascination was more in the memory than in the doing of them, strange triumphs that gratified the pride more than the passions, and gave to the intellect a quickened sense of joy, greater than any joy they brought, or could ever bring, to the senses.” 

“The sky was pure opal now.” 

“The basis of optimism is sheer terror. We think that we are generous because we credit our neighbour with the possession of those virtues that are likely to be a benefit to us. We praise the banker that we may overdraw our account, and find good qualities in the highwayman in the hope that he may spare our pockets.” 

“Even things that are true can be proved.”
