Kindness to animals seems to me to be one of the most rudimentary lessons of all.
I've been searching for ways to heal myself, and I've found that kindness is the best way.
Kindness is weak when you use it in a self-serving manner. Self-serving kindness is thin - people can see right through it when a kind leader has an agenda.
We must teach compassion and tolerance and encourage kindness, selflessness, and loving acceptance of all who are created in the image of God.
Today we are afraid of simple words like goodness and mercy and kindness. We don't believe in the good old words because we don't believe in good old values anymore. And that's why the world is sick.
A warm smile is the universal language of kindness.
Manners make the world work. They're not only based on kindness but also efficiency. When people know what to do, the world is smoother. When no one knows what to do, it's chaos.
I am a little bit of a softie, yes. Actually I don't think it's softness, I think it's kindness.
And then you have the orangutans. There's a softness, and kindness, and there's almost this glint of humor that lies behind everything that they do. There's this old-soul sort of wisdom. And with that comes this cool, unhurried, decisive, linear way of moving through space.
I don't believe revenge is part of my agenda. I'm a firm believer that, just like hate spreads hate, love and kindness spread love and kindness.
Transparency, honesty, kindness, good stewardship, even humor, work in businesses at all times.
Kindness is the sunshine in which virtue grows.
Eradicating a religion of kindness is, I think, a terrible thing for the Chinese to attempt.
Gratitude is the inward feeling of kindness received. Thankfulness is the natural impulse to express that feeling. Thanksgiving is the following of that impulse.
Here are the values that I stand for: honesty, equality, kindness, compassion, treating people the way you want to be treated and helping those in need. To me, those are traditional values.
I don't believe that directors need to essentially manipulate actors into doing things. You can suffer for your art, and you can make your own self suffer for your art. You don't need anyone else to do it for you. I work best when there's a safety trampoline of kindness.
I work best when there's a safety trampoline of kindness.
The first thing a kindness deserves is acceptance, the second, transmission.
True beauty is born through our actions and aspirations and in the kindness we offer to others.
No one has yet realized the wealth of sympathy, the kindness and generosity hidden in the soul of a child. The effort of every true education should be to unlock that treasure.
