Don’t mistake:Kindness with weakness;Assertiveness with arrogance;Self-defense with hatred;Self-care with vanity;Faith with ignorance.

If kindness and compassion opens the door to manipulation, it is time to take your business elsewhere.

The most sincere form of kindness is not to show off our greatness but to help another discover their own.

If only more people lusted to be kind than lusted to be rich, then maybe we could begin to know true wealth.

If you are looking to turn over a new leaf and be more kind and forgiving, I suggest starting with the person you see in the mirror each morning.

I really don’t care much about what you do, where you’re from, the size of your bank account, or even where you went to school. Show me kindness, respect, act with integrity, and you’ll have a fan and a friend for life.

Don’t take for granted the effort of a person who tries to keep in touch. It’s not always that someone cares so much.

It’s easy to be nice to someone who we think has less than us. The question is can we be nice to someone who we believe has more than us?

I find it extremely frustrating that those who strive for prestige get a free pass on the bad behavior it often takes to get there.
