A kindness received should be returned with a freer hand.

I have always depended on the kindness of strangers.

Kindness is the language which the deaf can hear and the blind can see.

Day 31 – Samuel Langhorne Clemens (November 30, 1835 – April 21, 1910), known by his pen name Mark Twain, was an American writer, humorist, entrepreneur, publisher, and lecturer. He was lauded as the “greatest humorist [the United States] has produced“, and William Faulkner called him “the father of American literature“.

A warm smile is the universal language of kindness.

September 24 – Squares Countdown – William Arthur Ward (December 17, 1921–March 30, 1994) was an often quoted writer of inspirational maxims. More than 100 articles, poems and meditations written by Ward were published in such magazines as Reader’s Digest, The Phi Delta Kappan, Science of Mind, and various Christian publications. His column Pertinent Proverbs was published by the Fort Worth Star-Telegram and also in American service club publications. He was a frequently quoted writer in Quote, an international weekly digest for public speakers.

The best portion of a man’s life is his little, nameless, unremembered acts of kindness and love.

September 13 – Kinda Squares Announcement – William Wordsworth (7 April 1770 – 23 April 1850) was an English Romantic poet who, with Samuel Taylor Coleridge, helped to launch the Romantic Age in English literature with their joint publication Lyrical Ballads (1798). Wordsworth’s magnum opus is generally considered to be The Prelude, a semiautobiographical poem of his early years that he revised and expanded a number of times. It was posthumously titled and published by his wife in the year of his death, before which it was generally known as The poem to Coleridge.

And here’s a special thought from Samuel Johnson, OAM who also featured on Day 11.

Johnson’s stated mission is to remind every Australian woman about the need to be ‘breast aware’, in an effort to promote early detection and improve survival rates, via his charitable foundation, Love Your Sister. (Johnson’s sister Connie died of cancer on September 8, 2017.)

On 24 August 2019, Love your Sister reached their initial goal of raising $10,000,000.
