It is Christianity to do good always - even to those who do evil to us. It is Christianity to love our neighbor as our self, and to do to all men as we would have them do to us.  It is Christianity to be gentle, merciful, and forgiving, and to keep those qualities quiet in our own hearts, and never make a boast of them, or of our prayers or of our love of God, but always to show that we love Him by humbly trying to do right in everything.

---Charles Dickens
