Good deeds from good intentions flow; but good intentions only; build for us a place below.

Good deeds from good intentions flow; but good intentions on

Summary

This quote suggests that while good intentions may lead to positive actions, they alone are not enough to shape a better future or contribute to a higher moral standing. It implies that genuine acts of kindness and virtue arise from intentions rooted in goodness. However, merely having good intentions is insufficient; one must translate them into tangible deeds to make a lasting impact. The quote also alludes to the idea that these good deeds can pave the way for a better place, suggesting the possibility of a positive afterlife or a better world for future generations.

There are only two things to worry about, either you are healthy or you are sick. If you are healthy, then there is nothing to worry about. But if you are sick there are only two things to worry about, either you will get well or you will die. If you get well, then there is nothing to worry about. But if you die there are only two things to worry about, either you will go to heaven or to hell. If you go to heaven, then there is nothing to worry about.
