Treat those who are good with goodness

A person's true wealth is the good he or she does in the world.
- Mohammed

Act as if what you do makes a difference. It does.
- William James

Love wasn't put in your heart to stay.
Love isn't love until you give it away.
- Michael W. Smith

A healthy democracy requires a decent society;
it requires that we are honorable, generous, tolerant and respectful.
- Charles W. Pickering

You cannot do a kindness too soon,
for you never know how soon it will be too late.
- Ralph Waldo Emerson

Kindness, like a boomerang, always returns.
- Anonymous

The generous man enriches himself by giving;
the miser hoards himself poor.
- Dutch Proverb

Treat those who are good with goodness,
and also treat those who are not good with goodness.
Thus goodness is attained.
Be honest to those who are honest,
and be also honest to those who are not honest.
Thus honesty is attained.
- Lao Tzu

True heroism is remarkably sober, very undramatic.
It is not the urge to surpass all others at whatever cost,
but the urge to serve others at whatever cost.
- Arthur Ashe

Be kind whenever possible. It is always possible.
- Tenzin Gyatso, the 14th Dalai Lama
