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.

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

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!

A gentleman has his eyes on all those present; he is tender toward the bashful, gentle toward the distant, and merciful toward the absent.

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.

Do not take yourself too seriously. You have to learn not to be dismayed at making mistakes. No human being can avoid failures.

A sarcastic person has a superiority complex that can be cured only by the honesty of humility.
