After the winds of life blow away the chaff, true friends remain. When you need someone, they materialize as if by magic. These guys wait patiently on the periphery for your call. Helping others infuses the givers with a nectar which cannot be bought. By rejecting the help of others, you deny them the rewards of giving. We need the help of others and they need us to feed their souls.
John Donne
Meditation 17
Devotions upon Emergent Occasions
"No man is an island, entire of itself; every man is a piece of the continent, a part of the main. If a clod be washed away by the sea, Europe is the less, as well as if a promontory were, as well as if a manor of thy friend's or of thine own were. Any man's death diminishes me, because I am involved in mankind; and therefore never send to know for whom the bell tolls; it tolls for thee..."
