Don't tell your problems to people: eighty percent don't care; and the other twenty percent are glad you have them.
Attention is the rarest and purest form of generosity.
I gave up caring about anything, and all the problems disappeared.
To be successful is to be helpful, caring and constructive, to make everything and everyone you touch a little bit better.
You cannot help another who will not help him or herself. In the end, all souls must walk their path - and the reason they are walking a particular path may not be clear to us... or even to them at the level of ordinary human consciousness. Do what you can to help others, of course. Show love and caring whenever and wherever you can. But do not get caught up in someone else's "story" to the point where you start writing it.
The purpose of human life is to serve and to show compassion and the will to help others.
I try more and more to be myself, caring relatively little whether people approve or disapprove.

The poor are the very lifeblood of the left, attracting activists, supporting among the intelligentsia, and - perhaps most important - allowing the left to indulge in self-congratulation as people who 'care.'

Sometimes the only thing you could do for people was to be there.
I realize now that people are not thinking about you and me or caring what is said about us. They are thinking about themselves-before breakfast, after breakfast, and right on until ten minutes past midnight. They would be a thousand times more concerned about a slight headache of their own than they would about the news of your death or mine.
All should take care of the sick
La Régle du Temple
I have too much respect for people to try to control them. But they are estranged from love, afraid to reach out and touch one another. We're afraid to appear sentimental or speak in platitudes because people will say, 'What a jerk!' It takes courage in our culture to be a lover.
I wouldn't poke fun at someone if they were weak. I wouldn't bully somebody.
A state, a community, caring first for all its children, providing amply for their spiritual as for their temporal well-being, has organized the primitive Eden.
My father instilled in me to take care of my family. Show up even when you don't want to show up.
Yet, taught by time, my heart has learned to glow for other's good, and melt at other's woe.
