How good would a Good Samaritan be, if a Good Samaritan would only intend to do good?

If to do were as easy as to know what were good to do, chapels had been churches, and poor men’s cottages princes’ palaces. It is a good divine that follows his own instructions: I can easier teach twenty what were good to be done, than be one of the twenty to follow mine own teaching.

How far that little candle throws his beams! So shines a good deed in a weary world.

Be good and be good at being good

Do not act as if you had ten thousand years to throw away. Death stands at your elbow. Be good for something while you live and it is in your power.

A man does not have to be an angel to be a saint.
