This is so true, wish some who have great power would live as this quote suggests! 🙂 Perfect for these days we live in!
There are many more gentle and kind people ❤ who prefer a positive way of thinking and acting. I try to focus on the Mother Teresa and Gandhi's of the world but so hard with these "in your face" negative diatribes we hear so often. 😦
If this quote was placed in our societal institutions, perhaps people would be more empathetic.
I have a quote that goes with that one” either you die a hero or you live long enough to see yourself become the villain”.
I only wrote that because I think a lot of people think that way. I used to be the most happy go lucky person ever, but after be betrayed so much; I reserve my sunny disposition for those who appreciate me.
With great power comes great responsibility.
