Horace Mann Quotes:
Ocupation: American Politician
Life: May 4, 1796 - August 2, 1859
Birthday: May 4
Death: August 2
Doing nothing for others is the undoing of one's self. We must be purposely kind and generous, or we miss the best part of existence. The heart that goes out of itself, gets large and full of joy. This is the great secret of the inner life. We do ourselves the most good doing something for others.
