In
Buffy, the battle takes place in a supernatural realm. The good
and evil are cosmic. For Veronica, the evil is not from some cosmic
evil, it grows from within people (which is far more sinister.)
Buffy was always saving the world (literally); Veronica saves people
that no one else really cares about.
--Darrel Manson
ON
BEING THERE FOR OTHERS
Charity is the scope of all God’s commands.
--SAINT JOHN CHRYSOSTOM (C. 347–407)
If you haven’t got any charity in your heart, you have the
worse kind of heart trouble.
--BOB HOPE
It is well to remember that the entire universe, with one trifling
exception, is composed of others.
--John Andrew Holmes
It is far more impressive when others discover your good qualities
without your help.
--Judith Martin, (Miss Manners)
We are here on Earth to do good to others. What the others are here
for, I don't know.
--W. H. Auden (1907 - 1973)
Human beings, who are almost unique in having the ability to learn
from the experience of others, are also remarkable for their apparent
disinclination to do so.
--Douglas Adams (1952 - 2001), "Last Chance to See"
ON
BEING THERE FOR OTHERS
Galatians 6:10 (MsgB)
Right now, therefore, every time we get the chance, let us work for
the benefit of all, starting with the people closest to us in the
community of faith.
Never to judge rashly; never to interpret the actions of others
in an ill-sense, but to compassionate their infirmities, bear their
burdens, excuse their weaknesses, and make up for their defects—to
hate their imperfections, but love themselves, this is the true
spirit of charity.
--NICHOLAS CAUSSIN (1583–1651)
