Quotes To Live By


“One day I entered a church and a man approached me, and, assuming I must be a maid, he asked me with a stern voice whom I was working for. This, of course, was meant to convey the threat that he would tell my boss about my insolence. I told him I was a nurse and that I wasn’t working for one person but for everybody. To that he didn’t know how to respond.”

— Sister Abegail Ntleko Empty Hands: A Memoir

“It reminded me that when we know about suffering, when we are proximal to it, we are capable of extraordinary generosity. We can do and and be so much for each other-but only when we see one another in our full humanity...”

-John Green
Everything Is Tuberculosis

“My patients brought me so close to the reality of human life that I could not help learning essential things from them.”

-Carl Jung
