Kindness comes back like a boomerang to those who are kind. Perhaps, its return takes years. Perhaps, the kindness returns from a different direction than that which we sent out kindness. But it will return. It is never lost.

More quotes by John Templeton
Help yourself by helping others.
John Templeton
Living life with a smile is like throwing yeast into a bowl of flour, adding warm water and waiting for the flour to rise. It multiplies may times over.
John Templeton
Each of us has a purpose for living beyond our own survival and pleasure. Every individual is like a thread in a beautiful tapestry with a vital contribution to make, not only to the sustenance of life as we know it, but in the creation and development of more beneficial expressions of life.
John Templeton
Invest at the point of maximum pessimism.
John Templeton
Let no day go by without counting your blessing.
John Templeton
I have no quarrel with what I learned in the Presbyterian church - I am still an enthusiastic Christian. But why shouldn't I try to learn more? Why shouldn't I go to Hindu services? Why shouldn't I go to Muslim services? If you are not egotistical, you will welcome the opportunity to learn more.
John Templeton
It is nice to be important, but it's more important to be nice.
John Templeton
Let's worship Divinity, but understand the divinity we worship is beyond our comprehension.
John Templeton
Basic reality seems to be that the more you try to be like God by radiating unlimited love, the more you become flooded by waves of love from others and from God.
John Templeton
Usually God favours the people who try to do good. So, when you find that the crowd is desperately trying to sell, help them and buy. When you find that the crowd is overenthusiastically trying to buy, help them and sell. It usually works out.
John Templeton
If we become increasingly humble about how little we know, we may be more eager to search.
John Templeton
Hate, like prayer, changes the person involved in the activity, not the person the activity is aimed at.
John Templeton
As we learn to share and give and care, love increases. A person who knows how to love does not seem to feel lonely or alone. In this sense, the power of love can become a true weapon against harm.
John Templeton
I believe all religions are becoming obsolete, clinging to ancient concepts.
John Templeton
Bull markets are born on pessimism, grown on skepticism, mature on optimism and die on euphoria. The time of maximum pessimism is the best time to buy, and the time of maximum optimism is the best time to sell.
John Templeton
Everyone has special talents, and it is our duty to find ours and use them well.
John Templeton
I focus on spiritual wealth now, and I'm busier, more enthusiastic, and more joyful than I have ever been.
John Templeton
If a business is not ethical, it will fail, perhaps not right away but eventually.
John Templeton
The government of India regulates nearly everything, so there's very little progress whereas in Hong Kong the government keeps its hands off... and the standard of living has multiplied.
John Templeton
The commitment of giving your best at all times, in all circumstances and under all conditions, can enable you to find value in, and lend value to, every experience.
