الإمام علي (عليه السَّلام):
إنَّ مَكرُمَةً صَنَعتَها إلى أحَدٍ مِن النّاسِ إنّما أكرَمتَ بها نفسَكَ وزَيَّنتَ بها عِرضَكَ، فلا تَطلُبْ مِن غيرِكَ شُكرَ ما صَنَعتَ إلى نفسِكَ.

A kind deed you do for a person is in fact kindness done towards yourself, which is also a means of decorating your own honour. So, do not seek thanks from someone else for what you have done for yourself.
