How dreadful knowledge of the truth can be
When there's no help in truth! ~ Sophocles
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
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
purpose of life is not to be happy. It is to be useful, to be honorable,
to be compassionate, to have it make some difference that you have
lived and lived well. ~ Ralph Waldo Emerson
No one has ever become poor by giving. ~ Anne Frank
