A Kind and Cheerful Demeanor

"So many gods
So many creeds
This wind, that wind.
While just the art
Of being kind
Is all the sad world needs."
- Ella Wheeler Wilcox

"The best way to cheer yourself up
Is to cheer someone else up."
- Mark Twain

"Wise sayings often fall
on barren ground;
but a kind word
is never thrown away."
- Sir Arthur Helps

"To educate yourself for the feeling of gratitude means to take nothing for granted, but to always seek out and value the kind that will stand behind the action. Nothing that is done for you is a matter of course. Everything originates in a will for the
good, which is directed at you. Train yourself never to put off the word or action for the expression of gratitude."
- Albert Schweitzer
