To injure your opponent is to injure yourself.

Friendship never forgets that its only reason for existing is to love other people.

When you forgive, the person who insulted you feels humbled in his error and becomes loyal.

It was so good that I can see love in everything, even in the eyes of a schizophrenic.

A kind, courteous Christian is the most powerful argument in favor of the gospel that can be produced.

Art thou angry with him whose armpits stink? Art thou angry with him whose mouth smells foul?

Whatever attitudes we habitually use toward ourselves, we will use on others, and whatever attitudes we habitually use toward others, we will use on ourselves.

We should ever conduct ourselves towards our enemy as if he were one day to be our friend.

If you're a Christian you can't have an "I'm better than" attitude toward anyone because everybody is somebody for whom Jesus died.

Something happens inside of us when we are courteous and deferential toward others. It is all part of a refining process, which if persisted in, will change our very natures.

In the time of your life, live - so that in that good time there shall be no ugliness or death for yourself or for any life your life touches. Seek goodness everywhere, and when it is found, bring it out of its hiding-place and let it be free and unashamed...In the time of your life, live - so that in that wondrous time you shall not add to the misery and sorrow of the world, but shall smile to the infinite delight and mystery of it.

The best portion of a good man's life: his little, nameless unremembered acts of kindness and love.
