Excerpt from Character and Conduct: A Book of Helpful Thoughts by Great Writers of Past and Present Ages

This collection of noble thoughts expressed by men and women of past and present ages who have endeavoured to leave the world a little better than they found it, is similar in arrangement and purpose to my former volume Being and Doing and has been compiled at the request of several readers who have found that book helpful; It is obvious that without the kindly co-operation of many authors and publishers such books could not exist, and I tender sincere and hearty thanks to those who have made the work possible. All have treated me with unfailing courtesy and generosity.

Where I have occasionally used short quotations without permission I ask forgiveness.
