Kind thoughts are rarer than either kind words or deeds. They imply a great deal of thinking about others. This in itself is rare. But they also imply a great deal of thinking about others without the thoughts being criticisms. This is rarer still.

Frederick W. Faber quotes
Every moment of resistance to temptation is a victory.
For right is right, since God is God and right the day must win. To doubt would be disloyalty, to falter would be sin.

Kindness has converted more sinners than zeal, eloquence, or learning.
The buried talent is the sunken rock on which most lives strike and founder.
They always win who side with God.
