"Mankind was my business... charity, mercy, forbearance, benevolence, were all my business."

True politeness is the spirit of benevolence showing itself in a refined way. It is the expression of good-will and kindness. It promotes both beauty in the man who possesses it, and happiness in those who are about him. It is a religious duty, and should be a part of religious training.

— Henry Ward Beecher
