Gentleness, self-sacrifice and generosity are the exclusive possession of no one race or religion.
Sentiment: POSITIVE
One who has no love in his heart will try to possess everything for himself. One who has love in his heart is ready to sacrifice everything, including his own body, for the benefit of others.
The essential elements of giving are power and love - activity and affection - and the consciousness of the race testifies that in the high and appropriate exercise of these is a blessedness greater than any other.
Sacrifice is nothing other than the production of sacred things.
To desire and expect nothing for oneself and to have profound sympathy for others is genuine holiness.
That means that every human being - without distinction of sex, age, race, skin color, language, religion, political view, or national or social origin - possesses an inalienable and untouchable dignity.
There is nothing stronger in the world than gentleness.
He who is unconscious of the ties which connect him with every individual of his species feels no obligation to make sacrifices for their welfare or happiness.
Whether one believes in a religion or not, and whether one believes in rebirth or not, there isn't anyone who doesn't appreciate kindness and compassion.
Self-sacrifice enables us to sacrifice other people without blushing.
Self-sacrifice which denies common sense is not a virtue. It's a spiritual dissipation.
