Compassion will cure more sins than condemnation.

When we practice loving kindness and compassion we are the first ones to profit.

The greatest kindness one can render to any man is leading him to truth.

Every heart that has beat strong and cheerfully has left a hopeful impulse behind it in the world, and bettered the tradition of mankind.

Kindly words do not enter so deeply into men as a reputation for kindness.

My wish for you is that you continue. Continue to be who you are, to astonish a mean world with your acts of kindness.

We must each lead a way of life with self-awareness and compassion, to do as much as we can. Then, whatever happens we will have no regrets.

Benevolence is man’s mind, and righteousness is man’s path.

It never ceases to amaze me: We all love ourselves more than other people, but care more about their opinion than our own.

Hatred, as well as love, renders its votaries credulous.

From this arises the question whether it is better to be loved rather than feared, or feared rather than loved. It might perhaps be answered that we should wish to be both: but since love and fear can hardly exist together, if we must choose between them, it is far safer to be feared than loved.

Man must evolve for all human conflict a method which rejects revenge, aggression, and retaliation. The foundation of such a method is love.

People must learn to hate, and if they can learn to hate, they can be taught to love, for love comes more naturally to the human heart than its opposite.

Until you get comfortable with being alone, you’ll never know if you’re choosing someone out of love or loneliness.

Love is reflected in love.

Life without love is like a tree without blossoms or fruit.

Let no man pull you so low as to hate him.

To love and win is the best thing. To love and lose, the next best.

Love is the only way to rescue humanity from all ills.
