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

It is just as cowardly to judge an absent person as it is wicked to strike a defenseless one. Only the ignorant and narrow-minded gossip, for they speak of persons instead of things.

Nobody needs a smile so much as the one who has none to give. So get used to smiling heart-warming smiles, and you will spread sunshine in a sometimes dreary world.

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

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.

Only a kind person is able to judge another justly and to make allowances for his weaknesses. A kind eye, while recognizing defects, sees beyond them.
