  What do we live for, if it is not to make life
        less difficult for one another?

                           -- George Eliot

Love can overcome great obstacles,
and God's love can totally
transform the world.

                        -- Pope John Paul II

Few of us can do great things, but all of us can do
small things with great love.

                                                            -- Mother Teresa

A religious act is performed out of good motivation with
sincere thought for the benefit of others. Religion is here
and now in our daily lives. If we lead that life for the benefit of
the world, this is the hallmark of a religious life.

This is my simple religion. No need for temples.
No need for complicated philosophy. Your own mind,
your own heart is the temple; your philosophy
is simple kindness.

                                                        -- The Dalai Lama

Give, give, give -- what is the point of having experience,
knowledge or talent if I don't give it away?
Of having stories if I don't tell them to others?
Of having wealth if I don't share it?
... It is in giving that I connect with others,
with the world and with the divine.

                                                  -- Isabel Allende

We don't have to find a cure for cancer to make a difference
in the world, and we don't have to write great novels to
be noticed by God. We only have to share our lives
with other people.

                                                       -- Rabbi Harold Kushner

You must be the change you wish to see in the world.

    -- Mahatma Gandhi
