Collected by Croft Pentz
Remember the kindness of others; forget your own.
Nothing is as strong as gentleness; nothing is as gentle as real strength.
Keep your head up, but be careful to keep your nose on a friendly level.
Don't expect to enjoy life if you keep your milk of human kindness bottled up.
A little oil of courtesy will save a lot of friction.
