Lead the life that will make you kindly and friendly to everyone about you, and you will be surprised what a happy life you will lead. - Charles M. Schwab
Many men fail because they do not see the importance of being kind and courteous to the men under them. Kindness to everybody always pays for itself. And, besides, it is a pleasure to be kind. - Charles M. Schwab
A heart full of love and compassion is the main source of inner strength, willpower, happiness, and mental tranquility.
Compassion is the wish for another being to be free from suffering; love is wanting them to have happiness.
Compassion is something really worthwhile. It is not just a religious or spiritual subject, not a matter of ideology. It is not a luxury, it is a necessity.
Compassion is of little value if it just remains an idea. It must motivate how we respond to others and be reflected in all our thoughts and actions.
A truly compassionate attitude toward others does not change even if they behave negatively or hurt you.
Just as we can learn how helpful love and compassion can be, we can come to understand that anger, pride, jealousy and arrogance can be detrimental.
A good motivation is what is needed: compassion without dogmatism, without complicated philosophy; just understanding that others are human brothers and sisters and respecting their human rights and dignities. That we humans can help each other is one of our unique human capacities.
Peace means when there is conflict, use our common sense and our compassion to consider rest of humanity, our human brothers and sisters.
Wisdom, compassion, and courage are the three universally recognized moral qualities of men. - Confucius
Our task must be to free ourselves by widening our circle of compassion to embrace all living creatures and the whole of nature and its beauty.
Until he extends the circle of his compassion to all living things, man will not himself find peace. - Albert Schweitzer
Only the development of compassion and understanding for others can bring us the tranquility and happiness we all seek.
We are intelligent, we have seed of compassion from birth. Using reason and intelligence we can enhance our sense of compassion and come to understand how its opposite, anger, is harmful.
When we are motivated by compassion and wisdom, the results of our actions benefit everyone, not just our individual selves or some immediate convenience. When we are able to recognize and forgive ignorant actions of the past, we gain strength to constructively solve the problems of the present.
By facing our challenges and overcoming them, we grow stronger, wiser, and more compassionate. - John Templeton
