If, when you charged a person with his faults, you credited him with his virtues too, you would probably like everybody.

Try to make at least one person happy every day. If you cannot do a kind deed, speak a kind word. If you cannot speak a kind word, think a kind thought. Count up, if you can, the treasure of happiness that you would dispense in a week, in a year, in a lifetime!

Cheerfulness is a very great help in fostering the virtue of charity. Cheerfulness itself is a virtue.

The practice of patience toward one another, the overlooking of one another's defects, and the bearing of one another's burdens is the most elementary condition of all human and social activity in the family, in the professions, and in society.

Have you not noticed in your past experience that your kind interpretations were almost always truer than your harsh ones?

Genuine love will always feel urged to communicate joy - to be a joy-giver. Mankind needs joy.

Kind words are a creative force, a power that concurs in the building up of all that is good, and energy that showers blessings upon the world.
