To be hopeful in bad times is based on the fact that human history is not only of cruelty, but also of compassion, sacrifice, courage, kindness. If we see only the worst, it destroys our capacity to do something. If we remember these times and places when people have behaved magnificantly, this gives us the energy to act. And if we do act in however small way, we don't have to wait for some grand utopian futures. The future is an infinite succession of presents, and to live now as we think human beings should live, in defiance of all that is bad around us, is itself a marvelous victory.
Howard Zinn

As I get older, I realize that the thing I value most is goodheartedness.
Alice Walker

Act with kindness, but do not expect gratitude.
Confucius
