Goodness Quotes (page 77)

The Good Book says that the meek shall inherit the earth and I expect that's probably the truth. I aint no freethinker, but I'll tell you what. I'm a long way from bein convinced that it's all that good a thing. Cormac McCarthy
Stephenie Meyer quote: "Two voices struggled inside me. One that wanted to be good and..."
Two voices struggled inside me. One that wanted to be good and brave, and one that told the good one to keep her mouth shut. Stephenie Meyer
Taylor Swift quote: "No matter what happens in life, be good to people. Being good..."
No matter what happens in life, be good to people. Being good to people is a wonderful legacy to leave behind. Taylor Swift
Why was the blind guy playing with matches, you ask? Because he's good at it. Anything to do with fire, igniting things, exploding things, things with fuses, wicks, accelerants . . . Iggy's your man. It's one of those good/bad things. James Patterson
Major Major had lied, and it was good. He was not really surprised that it was good, for he had observed that people who did lie were, on the whole, more resourceful and ambitious and successful than people who did not lie. Joseph Heller
Malcolm Gladwell quote: "Practice isn't the thing you do once you're good. It's the..."
Practice isn't the thing you do once you're good. It's the thing you do that makes you good. Malcolm Gladwell
And what is true education? It is awakening a love for truth; giving a just sense of duty; opening the eyes of the soul to the great purpose and end of life. It is not so much giving words, as thoughts; or mere maxims, as living principles. It is not teaching to be honest, because 'honesty is the best policy'; but because it is right. It is teaching the individual to love the good, for the sake of the good; to be virtuous in action because one is so in heart; to love and serve God supremely,... David O. McKay
Abigail Adams quote: "To be good, and do good, is the whole duty of man comprised in..."
To be good, and do good, is the whole duty of man comprised in a few words. Abigail Adams
There is no virtue in compulsory government charity, and there is no virtue in advocating it. A politician who portrays himself as "caring" and "sensitive" because he wants to expand the government's charitable programs is merely saying that he's willing to try to do good with other people's money. Well, who isn't? And a voter who takes pride in supporting such programs is telling us that he'll do good with his own money -- if a gun is held to his head. P. J. O'Rourke
Gilbert K. Chesterton quote: "We do not need to get good laws to restrain bad people. We..."
We do not need to get good laws to restrain bad people. We need to get good people to restrain us from bad laws. Gilbert K. Chesterton
And what is written well and what is written badly...need we ask Lysias or any other poet or orator who ever wrote or will write either a political or other work, in meter or out of meter, poet or prose writer, to teach us this?" What is good, Phdrus, and what is not good...need we ask anyone to tell us these things? Robert M. Pirsig
The best way to not feel hopeless is to get up and do something. Don’t wait for good things to happen to you. If you go out and make some good things happen, you will fill the world with hope, you will fill yourself with hope. Barack Obama
All good books are alike in that they are truer than if they had really happened and after you are finished reading one you will feel that all that happened to you and afterwards it all belongs to you: the good and the bad, the ecstasy, the remorse and sorrow, the people and the places and how the weather was. If you can get so that you can give that to people, then you are a writer. Ernest Hemingway
Neil Gaiman quote: "Tomorrow may be hell, but today was a good writing day, and on..."
Tomorrow may be hell, but today was a good writing day, and on the good writing days nothing else matters. Neil Gaiman
Gods be good, why would any man ever want to be king? When everyone was shouting King in the North, King in the North, I told myself ... swore to myself ... that I would be a good king, as honorable as Father, strong, just, loyal to my friends and brave when I faced my enemies ... now I can't even tell one from the other. George R. R. Martin
