“Only the Gentle are truly strong.”
James Dean
“Only the weak are cruel. Gentleness can only be expected from the strong.”
Leo F. Buscaglia
“Only the gentle are ever really strong.'”
“Never seek to tell thy love, / Love that never told can be; / For the gentle wind does move / Silently, invisibly.”
William Blake
“The quality of mercy is not strained; It droppeth as the gentle rain from heaven Upon the place beneath. It is twice blessed- It blesseth him that gives, and him that takes.”
William Shakespeare
“I have three precious things which I hold fast and prize. The first is gentleness; the second is frugality; the third is humility, which keeps me from putting myself before others. Be gentle and you can be bold; be frugal and you can be liberal; avoid putting yourself before others and you can become a leader among men.”
Lao Tzu
“Be gentle to all, and stern with yourself.”
St. Teresa of Avila
