Extend a hand whether or not you know it shall be grasped.
Never reach out your hand unless you're willing to extend an arm.
I often find myself writing about people taking care of each other, or trying to.
It is the task of a good man to help those in misfortune.
To help a friend in need is easy, but to give him your time is not always opportune.
When a friend is sick, I see the situation for what it is, not what it isn't, and I offer to help as much as she wants, not as much as I want.
The only true currency in this bankrupt world is what you share with someone else when you're uncool.
When you hear about what someone else is going through, and you are unable to distance yourself from it or in any way muzzle your empathy and are inspired to actually do something, these are moments to learn from.
At the end of the day what matters most is that we can cut through the pettiness and drama when it really counts and support each other.
Your sympathy is worthless to people in need without action.
I moved in with a roommate who told me, 'Stay with me until you can afford rent. Don't give up.' People who supported me were like, 'If you don't have money for food, I'll cook you dinner. You don't have money for acting class? Let's get together and read lines.'
Jessi is a great person. She really is. She's been a friend to me all through all my bad times, and she's understood what I was doing. She came up with that one saying, which was great.
I believe you should help people.
Friendship is but another name for an alliance with the follies and the misfortunes of others. Our own share of miseries is sufficient: why enter then as volunteers into those of another?
Nobody ever chooses the already unfortunate as objects of his loyal friendship.
All my adult life people have been helping me.
With all the things I've been through, the No. 1 thing that I've learned is that we're supposed to help people through this world.
I also think that what's wrong with all of us is that we don't show enough love toward each other.
I always felt that it was my job to try to help other people get it and deal with it.
To be poor does not mean you lack the means to extend charity to another. You may lack money or food, but you have the gift of friendship to overwhelm the loneliness that grips the lives of so many.
To help, to continually help and share, that is the sum of all knowledge; that is the meaning of art.
I just want to thank everyone for their support. Sometimes friends need the help of their friends to get by.
'96 is the year of love. We all need to pull together.
I only wanted to help my people.
The greater good is achieved by not only telling people what they need to know, but also filling them with a sense of empathy and love.
I've come to the conclusion that it's not really possible to help others.
