1 - 2 - 3 - 4 - 5 - 6 - 7 - 8



A bad act done will fester and create in its own way. It's not only goodness that creates. Bad things create. They have their own yeast.
Dennis Potter

A good person can make another person good; it means that goodness will elicit goodness in the society; other persons will also be good.
Bhumibol Adulyadej

A leader is one who, out of madness or goodness, volunteers to take upon himself the woe of the people. There are few men so foolish, hence the erratic quality of leadership in the world.
John Updike

Above all, it is not decency or goodness of gentleness that impresses the Middle East, but strength.
Meir Kahane

James Prescott Joule

An act of goodness is of itself an act of happiness. No reward coming after the event can compare with the sweet reward that went with it.
Maurice Maeterlinck

Louisa May Alcott

Confidence in the goodness of another is good proof of one's own goodness.
Michel de Montaigne


Each person has inside a basic decency and goodness. If he listens to it and acts on it, he is giving a great deal of what it is the world needs most. It is not complicated but it takes courage. It takes courage for a person to listen to his own goodness and act on it.
Pablo Casals

Robert Anton Wilson

Evil is always possible. Goodness is a difficulty.
Anne Rice

Evil is committed without effort, naturally, fatally; goodness is always the product of some art.
Charles Baudelaire

For goodness sake, will they hear, will white people hear what we are trying to say? Please, all we are asking you to do is to recognize that we are humans, too.
Desmond Tutu

For some years I deserted religion in favour of Marxism. The republic of goodness seemed more attainable than the Kingdom of God.
Lionel Blue

For the sake of goodness and love, man shall let death have no sovereignty over his thoughts.
Thomas Mann

From this it follows that con-sideration for other persons or for other living beings is very vital for goodness and want of consideration for other people makes human beings selfish, regardless for other people's good.
Morarji Desai

God seeth different abilities and frailties of men, which may move His goodness to be merciful to their different improvements in virtue.
William Law

Goodness and hard work are rewarded with respect.
Luther Campbell
