11 Tips on Being a Pleasant Person

Be polite and courteous to all. Others will compare your actions to your message to see if the way you live matches up to what you preach.

True Friendship

Oh, the comfort, the inexpressible comfort of feeling safe with a person; having neither to weigh thoughts nor measure words, but to pour them all out, just as they are, chaff and grain together, knowing that a faithful hand will take and sift them, keep what is worth keeping, and then, with a breath of kindness, blow the rest away. —George Eliot

Without Price

Beginning today, treat everyone you meet as if they were going to be dead by midnight. Extend to them all the care, kindness, and understanding you can muster, and do it with no thought of any reward. Your life will never be the same again.

—Og Mandino (1923–1996)
