4 Love and compassion are necessioes, not luxuries. Without them humanity cannot survive. Dalai Lama Your wealth or status doesn t make you. Your kindness and character does. Venkat Desireddy When you start to develop your powers of empathy and imaginaoon, the whole world opens up to you. Susan Sarandon Use your voice for kindness, your ears for compassion, your hands for charity, your mind for truth, and your heart for love. Unknown

5

6 Never be afraid to raise your voice for honesty, truth and compassion against injusoce, lying and greed. If people all over the world would do this, it would change the earth. William Faulkner I expect to pass through the world but once. Any good, therefore, that I can do or any kindness I can show to any fellow creature, let me do it now. Let me not defer or neglect it for I shall not pass this way again. EZene De Grellet No act of kindness, however small, is ever wasted. Aesop You cannot do a kindness too soon, for you never know how soon it will be too late. Ralph Waldo Emerson

8 Never worry about numbers. Help one person at a Ome and always start with the person nearest you. Mother Teresa I am only one; but I soll am one. I cannot do everything, but soll I can do something. I will not refuse to do something I can do. Helen Keller The opposite of love is not hate, it s indifference. Elis Wiesel Be the change you wish to see in the world. Mahatma Gandhi

10 Even in darkness it is possible to create light. Elie Wiesel Human suffering anywhere concerns men and women everywhere. Elie Wiesel The final forming of a person s character lies in their own hands. Anne Frank How wonderful it is that nobody need wait a single moment before starong to improve the world. Anne Frank

11

12 Where there is hope, there s life. It fills us with fresh courage and makes us strong. Anne Frank JusOce for crimes against humanity must have no limitaoons. Simon Wiesenthal For evil to flourish, it only requires good men to do nothing. Simon Wiesenthal I swore never to be silent whenever and wherever human beings endure suffering and humiliaoon. We must always take sides. Neutrality helps the oppressor, never the vicom. Silence encourages the tormentor, never the tormented. Elie Wiesel

13

14 People are just people, and all people have shortcomings, but all of us are born with a basic goodness. Anne Frank I ve found that there is always some beauty le_ in nature, sunshine, freedom, in yourself; they can all help you. Anne Frank Human greatness does not lie in wealth or power, but in character and goodness. Anne Frank In spite of everything, I soll believe that people are really good at heart. Anne Frank

15

16 No one has become poor by giving. Anne Frank Courage, kindness, friendship, character. These are the qualioes that define us as human beings, and propel us, on occasion, to greatness. R.J. Palacio, Author of Wonder One person can make a difference, and everyone can try. President John F. Kennedy I have decided to sock with love. Hate is too great a burden to bear. Dr. MarOn Luther King Jr.

17

18 Knowing what s right doesn t mean much unless you do what s right. President Theodore Roosevelt I would rather be a likle nobody than an evil somebody. President Abraham Lincoln The Holocaust was the quintessence of sin the ulomate example of the abuse of human freedom. The Reverend John C. Danforth It is up to us to ensure that we never live it (the Holocaust) again. President Ronald Reagan
