Treat people as if they were what they should be, and you help them become what they are capable of becoming. ~ Goethe
The
best advisers, helpers and friends, always are not those who tell us
how to act in special cases, but who give us, out of themselves, the
ardent spirit and desire to act right, and leave us then, even through
many blunders, to find out what our own form of right action is. ~
Phillips Brooks
The healthy, the strong individual, is the one
who asks for help when he needs it. Whether he has an abscess on his
knee or in his soul. ~ Rona Barrett
The impersonal hand of government can never replace the helping hand of a neighbor. ~ Hubert H. Humphrey
You
will find that the mere resolve not to be useless, and the honest
desire to help other people, will, in the quickest and delicatest ways,
improve yourself. ~ John Ruskin
Never help a child with a task at which he feels he can succeed. ~ Maria Montessori
