Be kind and compassionate to one another, forgiving
each other, just as in Christ God forgave you.

Ephesians 4:32

"Suppose a nation in some distant region should take the Bible for their only law book, and every member should regulate his conduct by the precepts there contained! Every member would be obliged in conscience to temperance, frugality and industry; to justice, kindness and charity towards his fellow men; and to piety, love and reverence toward Almighty God."

John Adams
 
"Life is short and we have never too much time for gladdening the hearts of those who are 
traveling the dark journey with us. Oh, be swift to love, make haste to be kind!"

Henri Frederic Amiel
"Oh, the comfort - the inexpressible comfort of feeling safe with a person - having neither to weigh thoughts nor measure words, but pouring them all right out, just as they are, chaff and grain together; certain that a faithful hand will take and sift them, keep what is worth keeping, and then with the breath of kindness blow the rest away."

Dinah Craik

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

"One of the most difficult things to give away is kindness - it is usually returned."

Cort R. Flint
"The smallest act of kindness is worth more than the greatest intention."

"Kind words, kind looks, kind acts and warm handshakes, these are means of grace when men in trouble are fighting their unseen battles."
 
John Hall

"A part of kindness consists in loving people more than they deserve."

Joseph Joubert

"Be kind, for everyone you meet is fighting a hard battle."

"Kindness is more important than wisdom, and the recognition of this is the beginning of wisdom."
