Deeds

Famous quotes containing the word deeds:

“Good deeds are no less good because their object is unworthy.”
—Henry David Thoreau (1817–1862)

“Little deeds of kindness,
Little words of love,
Make our earth an Eden,
Like the heaven above.”
—Julia A. Fletcher Carney (1823–1908)

“But nothing is better than a truth which appears not to have the semblance of truth. There is always something incomprehensible about the great heroic deeds performed by humanity because they rise so far beyond the mediocre measure of mere mortals; but it is always only because of the incredible feats that human beings have accomplished that humanity recovers its faith in itself.”
—Stefan Zweig (18811942)
