Daddy was real gentle with kids. That's why I expected so much out of marriage figuring that all men should be steady and pleasant.

In mine opinion love is fitter than fear gentleness better than beating to bring up a child rightly in learning.

As a woman my style defines my leadership. It's a gentler more compassionate approach. I consult I listen and I compromise where it's in the best interest of the citizens.

Here again as I conceive gentlemen forget that this government is a republican one resting exclusively in the intelligence and virtue of the People.

There is nothing stronger in the world than gentleness.

In a gentle way you can shake the world.

I'm not really big on slapstick humor. I like gentle humor.

Wit is a weapon. Jokes are a masculine way of inflicting superiority. But humor is the pursuit of a gentle grin usually in solitude.

I remember when humor was gentle pokes. I used to call it 'arm around the shoulder' humor. Now they go for the jugular and they take no prisoners. It's mean mean stuff.

Come gentlemen I hope we shall drink down all unkindness.
