• Love is essential; gregariousness is optional. Cherish your nearest and dearest. Work with colleagues you like and respect. Scan new acquaintances for those who might fall into the former categories or whose company you enjoy for its own sake. And don't worry about socializing with everyone else. Relationships make everyone happier, introverts included, but think quality over quantity.

  Susan Cain

It is not critical knowledge but a risk of the heart which initiates affection and preserves loyalty in our fellow men.

  Abraham Joshua Heschel

  Phyllis McGinley

  Kindness, Compassion, Practice

  Phyllis McGinley (1962). "La provincia del corazón"
