Quotes About Tenderhearted

The greatness of our God lies in the fact that he is both toughminded and tenderhearted. He has qualities both of austerity and of gentleness.

One is strong enough to surround us with justice, and one is gentle enough to embrace us with grace.

I think you're the sort of person who finds money on the ground and waves it in the air and asks if anyone has lost it.

I think you do things that scare you, and that makes you braver than those adrenaline junkies who bungee-jump off bridges.

Always as lovely as any woman in any magazine, as any TV star of whom millions were enamored, she had lately looked thin and drawn. Even the evident weariness and the crescents of darkness like fading bruises around her eyes did not detract from her appearance.

~ Dean Koontz
