Kindness is Wiser

"Sometimes kindness is wiser than truth."

- Lieutenant Columbo

"I don't know why I always remembered that line."

because a line in fiction can speak volumes,

because collecting quotations is awesome,

because it says a lot about how we should act and live,

because,

just because.
