"Compassion becomes an automatic reaction when you..." - Quote by Wayne Dyer

“When I was an orphan, I was the richest kid at the orphanage because everyone else was complaining about not having anything. But when I discovered that you could get two cents for a Coca-Cola bottle, I would follow people around who were drinking it and ask them if they were almost through with it.”

“Passion is a feeling that tells you: this is the right thing to do. Nothing can stand in my way. It doesn't matter what anyone else says. This feeling is so good that it cannot be ignored. I'm going to follow my bliss and act upon this glorious sensation of joy.”

“Be a busy person. People who are active are often much more at peace with themselves than those who are inactive and inert.”

“If you're hurting, you need to help somebody else ease their hurt. If you're in pain, help somebody else's pain.”

“What value has compassion that does not take its object in its arms?”

“Feel, my children, feel; feel for the poor, the ignorant, the downtrodden; feel till the heart stops and the brain reels and you think you will go mad; then pour the soul out at the feet of the Lord, and then will come power, help and indomitable energy.”

“Take off the veil of hypnotism which you have cast upon the world, send not out thoughts and words of weakness unto humanity.”

“Hitherto the plans of the educationalists have achieved very little of what they attempted, and indeed we may well thank the beneficent obstinacy of real mothers, real nurses, and (above all) real children for preserving the human race in such sanity as it still possesses.”

“To a gargoyle on the ramparts of Notre Dame as Esmeralda rides off with Gringoire Quasimodo says. "Why was I not made of stone like thee?”
