What reward should a good deed bring you? Only the
joy you receive by performing it. And any other reward lessens the feeling of
this joy.
He who does good
to others makes the biggest gift to himself.
— Lucius
Annaeus Seneca
A saint prayed to
God in the following way: "0 God, please be kind to evil people as much as
you are to kind people. Kind people already feel good, because they are
kind."
— Muslih-Ud-Din
Saadi
If you do good
and ask for a reward, you weaken the force of your goodness.
— From
the Book Of Divine Thoughts
Do not let your
left hand know what your right hand is doing.
— Matthew 6:3
What a joy it is to do a good deed! And this joy is
strongest if no one knows that you have done it.
