Human Beings Quotes

“Cats are oppressed, dogs terrify them, landladies starve them, boys stone them, everybody speaks of them with contempt.

Thus, as all men follow justice and unite in charity, created goods should abound for them on a reasonable basis."”

“Have charity; have patience; have mercy. Never bring a human being, however silly, ignorant, or weak--above all, any little child--to shame and confusion of face. Never by petulance, by suspicion, by ridicule, even by selfish and silly haste--never, above all, by indulging in the devilish pleasure of a sneer--crush what is finest and rouse up what is coarsest in the heart of any fellow-creature.”

“The charities of life are scattered everywhere, enameling the vales of human beings as the flowers paint the meadows. They are not the fruit of study, nor the privilege of refinement, but a natural instinct.”
