Be kind and merciful. Let no one ever come to you without leaving better and happier.

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

Every time you smile at someone, it is an action of love, a gift to that person, a beautiful thing.

Do not wait for leaders; do it alone, person to person.

We can do no great things, only small things with great love.
