To those
people in the huts and villages of half the globe struggling
to break the bonds of mass misery, we pledge our best
efforts to help them help themselves, for whatever period is
required, not because the Communists may be doing it, not
because we seek their votes, but because it is right. If a
free society cannot help the many who are poor, it cannot
save the few who are rich.
-- John F. Kennedy
1917-1963, Thirty-fifth

Mutual aid is
as much a law of animal life as mutual struggle.

Nothing makes
one feel so strong as a call for help.

There is
something wrong about the man who wants help. There is

need, somewhere about that man.

1819-1891, American Author
Let us more

understanding, of peace. Money will come if we seek first
the Kingdom of God --the rest will be given.
