“Kindness is the essence of greatness.”

Joseph B. Wirthlin
I think what this quote means is that when someone thinks someone else is great they are looking at their kindness towards things. They see how kind they are towards people and animals and nature. To be truly great you do need kindness. Kindness will take you far in life. Kindness is the essence of greatness. It is the act of giving and nothing expecting nothing. Every great human being should be kind. Either people are kind or they’re not. Kindness comes from within you and having the power to make people smile and be happy.
