Margaret Cho Quotes

No act of kindness, no matter how small, is ever wasted.

I wanted to write about the transformative power of small acts of kindness. An old man falls in the street, you stop and make sure he's OK.

Perhaps we're too embarrassed to change or too frightened of the consequences of showing that we actually care. But why not risk it anyway? Begin today.
