Carry a smile that never fades. Carry a touch that never hurts. ~Author Unknown ~    Today I bent the truth to be kind, and I have no regret, for I am far surer of what is kind than I am of what is true. ~Robert Brault Be kind whenever possible. It is always possible. ~ Tenzin Gyatso    Never look down on anyone unless you are helping them up. ~Author Unknown ~    A good character is the best tombstone.

Spurgeon    It's nice to be important, but it's more important to be nice. ~Author Unknown ~    Today, give a stranger one of your smiles. It might be the only sunshine he sees all day. ~H.

Now that I am old, I admire kind people. ~Abraham Joshua Heschel                  If we should deal out justice only in this world, who would escape? No, it is better to be generous, and in the end more profitable,   for it gains gratitude for us, and love. ~Mark Twain                  How far you go in life depends on your being tender with the young, compassionate with the aged, sympathetic with the striving and tolerant of the weak and strong. Because someday in your life you will have been all of these. ~George Washington Carver    You can't live a perfect day without doing something for someone who will never be able to repay you. ~John Wooden    If those who owe us nothing gave us nothing, how poor we would be. ~Antonio Porchia    You cannot do a kindness too soon, for you never know how soon it will be too late. ~Ralph Waldo Emerson    By swallowing evil words unsaid, no one has ever harmed his stomach. ~Winston Churchill
