Virtue has needs of limits.

Baron De Montesquieu Author

In the midst of global crises such as pollution, wars and famine, kindness may be too easily dismissed as a 'soft' issue, or a luxury to be addressed after the urgent problems are solved. But kindness is the greatest need in all those areas - kindness toward the environment, toward other nations, toward the needs of people who are suffering. Until we reflect basic kindness in everything we do, our political gestures will be fleeting and fragile.

Bo Lozoff Writer

Anna Kournikova Tennis Player

Anthony Crosland British Politician

Augusten Burroughs Writer
