Acts Of Kindness Kant Believes
916 wordsTo be beneficent where one can is a duty; and besides this, there are many persons who are so sympathetically constituted that, without any further motive of vanity or self interest, they find an inner pleasure in spreading joy around them and can rejoice in the satisfaction of others as their own work.
