Being and Doing – 10 May – Courtesy
THE readiness which he showed to acknowledge a fault when once convinced of it…
THE readiness which he showed to acknowledge a fault when once convinced of it…
THAT best portion of a good man’s life, His little, nameless, unremembered, acts Of kindness and of love.
DOING nothing for others is the undoing of oneself.
THE more worthy any soul is, the larger is its compassion.
Look thou with pity on a brother’s fall,
But dwell not with stern anger on his fault;
It is the narrow-minded fastidious person who suffers most from uncongeniality.
ONE of her chief characteristics was her habit of always seeing the best in people, and more than that, of drawing forth whatever was best in them.
She thought that there was much needed doing in the world, and criticism of our neighbours, and of the natural order might wait, at all events, till the critic’s own character and conduct were free from blame
By loving whatever is loveable in those around us, love will flow back from them to us
As I am, so I see.
