He who loves goodness harbors angels, reveres reverence, and lives with God.
All men are born good.
Evil is always possible. Goodness is a difficulty.
Religion enabled society to organise itself to debate goodness, just as Greek drama had once done.
Some people continue to defend trickle-down theories which assume that economic growth, encouraged by a free market, will inevitably succeed in bringing about greater justice and inclusiveness in the world. This opinion, which has never been confirmed by the facts, expresses a crude and naive trust in the goodness of those wielding economic power and in the sacralized workings of the prevailing economic system.
The goodness you do might fail; but keep doing it, because the real failure is never doing goodness!

Nothing is better for my playing than teaching because when you teach, you have to think and you have to listen what other people do.

The civilization, so often vaunted by the learned exponents of arts and sciences, will, if allowed to overleap the bounds of moderation, bring great evil upon men. Thus warneth you He Who is the All-Knowing. If carried to excess, civilization will prove as prolific a source of evil as it had been of goodness when kept within the restraints of moderation.
Goodness begins simply with the fact of life itself.
Be there for your children. Sit on the bed and enjoy the late-night talks—try to stay awake! Pray for the Lord to inspire you. Forgive often. Choose your battles. Testify frequently of Jesus Christ and His goodness and of the Restoration. And most of all, let them know of your trust in the Lord.
Men should not try to overstrain their goodness more than any other faculty, bodily or mental.
There are two things that men should never weary of, goodness and humility; we get none too much of them in this rough world among cold, proud people.
He who is fair to look upon is good, and he who is good will soon be fair also.
Thank goodness there are women in our lives -- that's all I can say. We get saved by the women in our lives.
One has got all the goodness, and the other all the appearance of it.
If you had only truth, goodness, and harmony on your side, and the complete absence of the other, there would be no creative impulse.
