We can't help
everyone, but everyone can help someone.
-- Dr. Loretta Scott

The race of
mankind would perish did they cease to aid each other. We
cannot exist without mutual help. All therefore that need
aid have a right to ask it from their fellow-men; and no one
who has the power of granting can refuse it without guilt.
-- Sir Walter Scott

To give aid to
every poor man is far beyond the reach and power of every
man. Care of the poor is incumbent on society as a whole.

If you're in

The needs of a
human being are sacred. Their satisfaction cannot be

the moral or other value attributed to the human being in
question, or to any consideration whatsoever.
