an act of kindness is well repaid bad to do evil, but worse to boast of it the best is the enemy of the good black will take no other hue blushing is virtue's color do good by stealth and blush find it fame evil doers are evil dreaders a good heart cannot lie good can never grow out of evil good men scarce a good word costs no more than a bad one good words cost nothing and are worth much the good you do to others will always come back to you he that spares the bad injures the good heaven protects the good man injure others, injure yourself it is well to remember people's virtues and not their deficiencies it's great to be great, but it's greater to be human kind hearts are more than coronets kind hearts are soonest wronged a kind wife makes a faithful husband kind words are the music of the world kindness always begets kindness kind words never die kindness does more than violence kindness is the noblest weapon to conquer with let well alone malice drinks its own poison malice has a sharp sight and a strong memory a man's true wealth is the good he does in the world one never did repent of doing good one scabbed sheep will mar a whole flock the reward of a good deed is to have done it repay kindness with kindness see no evil, hear no evil, speak no evil a shady business never yields a sunny life the sun never repents of the good it does, nor does it ever demand a recompense an unkind word is better left unspoken virtue is the best title of nobility virtue is its own reward virtue would not go far if a little vanity walked not with it we cannot do evil to others without doing it to ourselves
