So many gods, so many creeds,
So many paths that wind and wind,
When just the art of being kind
Is all this sad world needs.
(Ella Wheeler Wilcox : 1850-1919)
Is she kind as she is fair?
For beauty lives with kindness.
(Shakespeare : The Two Gentlemen of Verona)
That best portion of a good man's life,
His little, nameless, unremembered acts
Of kindness and of love.
(Wordsworth : Tintern Abbey)
If I can stop one heart from breaking,
I shall not live in vain.
If I can ease one life from aching,
Or cool one pain,
Or help one fainting robin
Into his nest again,
I shall not live in vain.
(Emily Dickinson : 1830-1886)
