Weep like the waterwheel, that green herbs may spring up from the courtyard of your soul. If you wish for tears, have mercy on one who sheds tears; if you wish mercy, show mercy to the weak.

Rumi

Dost thou wish to receive mercy? Show mercy to thy neighbor.

Saint John Chrysostom

We need to show mercy. I mean, because as much mercy as you show people, that's the mercy you're going to be receiving.

Joel Osteen

Because God is a God of mercy and His mercy endures forever, you can trust that he will have mercy on you (See: 1 Chronicles 17:13). Therefore you can show mercy to your spouse by forgiving whenever he (she) does or says something that hurts or disturbs you.

Stormie Omartian

If you wish mercy, show mercy to the weak.

Rumi

I demand from you deeds of mercy which are to arise out of love for me. You are to show mercy to your neighbors always and everywhere. You must not shrink from this or try to excuse yourself from it.

Mary Faustina Kowalska

We need to, you know, restore people. We need to show mercy. I mean, because as much mercy as you show people, that's the mercy you're going to be receiving.

Joel Osteen

God loves to show mercy . . . His anger must be released by a stiff safety lock, but His mercy has a hair trigger.

John Piper

The most miserable prison in the world is the prison we make for ourselves when we refuse to show mercy. Our thoughts become shackled, our emotions are chained, the will is almost paralyzed. But when we show mercy, all of these bonds are broken, and we enter into a joyful liberty that frees us to share God's love with others.

Warren W. Wiersbe

Mercy to animals means mercy to mankind.

Henry Bergh

Who will not mercy unto others show, How can he mercy ever hope to have?

Edmund Spenser

Men show no mercy and expect no mercy, when honor calls, or when they fight for their idols or their gods.

Friedrich Schiller

Teach me to feel another's woe, to hide the fault I see, that mercy I to others show, that mercy show to me.

Alexander Pope

I do believe, with all my heart and mind and spirit, that I, not as President but as a humble servant of God, will receive justice without mercy if I fail to show mercy.

Gerald R. Ford

How can we speak of right and justice if we take an innocent creature and shed its blood? How can we pray to God for mercy if we ourselves have no mercy? Nobel laureate in literature.

Isaac Bashevis Singer

The ground of mercy is love, and the working of mercy is our keeping in love. And this was shewed in such manner that I could not have perceived of the part of mercy but as it were alone in love; that is to say, as to my sight.

Julian of Norwich
