Goodness Quote #1

Always seek justice, but love only mercy. To love justice and hate mercy is but a doorway to more injustice.
Criss Jami

Goodness Quote #2

Am eager to make more mistakes in order to succeed.
Aniekee Tochukwu
Goodness Quote #3

An act of kindness blossoms our lives with gladness.
Lailah Gifty Akita
Goodness Quote #4

An eternal life is a life that one lives according to his or her decree to ultimately be a fine human being, agreeing with the concept of goodness, foreseeing the dangers ahead either by prophesies or by anticipation and to serve our Heavenly Father unselfishly.
Anthony Pan
Goodness Quote #5

And in the echo of that gladness, horror blooms within me. In its own strange way, it's a horror as deep as any I've experienced so far. I've succeeded in taking another human hostage, in making him urinate on himself. I made a plan to torture someone, and then I carried it out, and it satisfied me to do so. As much hurt and hell as the Wolfman has caused, I don't want to be his judge and jury, his jailer and tormentor. I don't want to be that person. I want to be good. I don't want to fall into a big, black pit of darkness, because what if I can't get out?
Carolyn Lee Adams
Goodness Quote #6

And keep them thinking in terms of 'being good' as this is not an end so much as a means to something else —happiness, respect, self-esteem, etc… And whatever their true end is, take it away, and so goes their goodness.
Geoffrey Wood
Goodness Quote #7

And no one rose to ask the question: Good?-by what standard?

John Galt
Ayn Rand
Goodness Quote #8

And now it [grass] seems to me the beautiful uncut hair of graves,

Tenderly will I use you curling grass,
It may be you transpire from the breasts of young men,
It may be if I had known them I would have loved them,
It may be you from old people, or from offspring taken soon out of their
mother's laps,
And here you are the mothers' laps.

- Song of Myself: 6
Walt Whitman
Goodness Quote #9

And this is the eternal law. For, Evil often stops short at istelf and dies with the doer of it! but Good, never.
Charles Dickens
Goodness Quote #10

And when something awful happens, the goodness stands out even more ...
Banana Yoshimoto
Goodness Quote #11

And yet a knowledge
is here that tenses the throat
as for song: the inheritance
of the ones, alive or once
alive, who stand behind
the ones I have imagined,
who took into their minds
the troubles of this place,
blights of love and race,
but saw a good fate here
and willingly paid its cost,
kept it the best they could,
thought of its good,
and mourned the good they lost.

(From the ending of Where in Clearing, p179)
Wendell Berry
Goodness Quote #12

Angels are good not simply because they see bad as bad, but also because they see bad as corny.
Criss Jami
Goodness Quote #13

Any action is good action; do what you can from where you are and build off of that action each day.
Mike Basevic
Goodness Quote #14

Any good is good enough.
Bryant McGill
Goodness Quote #15

Any man who tries to be good all the time is bound to come to ruin among the great number who are not good. Hence a prince who wants to keep his authority must learn how not be good, and use that knowledge, or refrain from using it, as necessity requires.
Niccolò Machiavelli
Goodness Quote #16

Any profession you engage in, no matter how profitable, unless it is truly helpful and good for others, is a crime against your soul, and the world.
Bryant McGill
Goodness Quote #17

Anyone can be a hero, even those who cannot!
T.A. Cline
Goodness Quote #18

As an observer of human nature, let's just face the facts: stupid stuff sells, and often the more stupid and silly it is, the better it sells.
Simon Zingerman
Goodness Quote #19

As spiritual searchers we need to become freer and freer of the attachment to our own smallness in which we get occupied with me-me-me. Pondering on large ideas or standing in front of things which remind us of a vast scale can free us from acquisitiveness and competitiveness and from our likes and dislikes. If we sit with an increasing stillness of the body, and attune our mind to the sky or to the ocean or to the myriad stars at night, or any other indicators of vastness, the mind gradually stills and the heart is filled with quiet joy. Also recalling our own experiences in which we acted generously or with compassion for the simple delight of it without expectation of any gain can give us more confidence in the existence of a deeper goodness from which we may deviate. (39)
Ravi Ravindra
Goodness Quote #20

At nine o'clock Mr. Shimerda lighted one of our lanterns and put on his overcoat and fur collar. He stood in the little entry hall, the lantern and his fur cap under his arm, shaking hands with us. When he took grandmother's hand, he bent over it as he always did, and said slowly, 'Good woman!' He made the sign of the cross over me, put on his cap and went off in the dark. As we turned back to the sitting-room, grandfather looked at me searchingly. 'The prayers of all good people are good,' he said quietly.
Willa Cather
Goodness Quote #21

Badness is only spoiled goodness.

Be selfish and take good care of you first. When you are your best, you can best help others.
