He that does good for good's sake seeks neither paradise nor reward, but he is sure of both in the end.

Summary

This quote suggests that the act of doing good for a noble cause should be driven by genuine intentions rather than seeking personal gain or recognition. It implies that someone who performs good deeds solely for the sake of doing good will ultimately be rewarded, not necessarily in material or external forms such as paradise or rewards, but rather through a sense of fulfillment and inner satisfaction that arises from their virtuous actions.
