These quotes always brighten my day, amidst the human suffering from events like Harvey and the political rancor generated by people who are supposed to care about our country's well-being.

Constant kindness can accomplish much. As the sun makes ice melt, kindness causes misunderstanding, mistrust, and hostility to evaporate. #<Author:0x00007fbee0e99fc0>
KINDNESS
Do the things you used to talk about doing but never did. Know when to let go and when to hold on tight. Stop rushing. Don't be intimidated to say it like it is. Stop apologizing all the time. Learn to say no, so your yes has some oomph. Spend time with the friends who lift you up, and cut loose the ones who bring you down. Stop giving your power away. Be more concerned with being interested than being interesting. Be old enough to appreciate your freedom, and young enough to enjoy it. Finally, know who you are. #<Author:0x00007fbee0f14a40>

COURAGE
It is man's social nature which distinguishes him from the brute creation. If it is his privilege to be independent, it is equally his duty to be inter-dependent. Only an arrogant man will claim to be independent of everybody else and be self-contained. #<Author:0x00007fbee1003190>
CONNECTING
The one thing all famous authors, world class athletes, business tycoons, singers, actors, and celebrated achievers in any field have in common is that they all began their journeys when they were none of these things. #<Author:0x00007fbee10244d0>
DETERMINATION
No doubt, unity is something to be desired, to be striven for, but it cannot be willed by mere declarations. #<Author:0x00007fbee1051610>
UNITY
Go into the world and do well. But more importantly, go into the world and do good. #<Author:0x00007fbee108a190>
VOLUNTEERING
We may have different religions, different languages, different colored skin, but we all belong to one human race. We all share the same basic values. #<Author:0x00007fbee10c7270>
EQUALITY
Nobody is superior, nobody is inferior, but nobody is equal either. People are simply unique, incomparable. You are you, I am I. #<Author:0x00007fbee10e4500>
