When we first arrived gezegde

 When we first arrived and saw the overwhelming destruction, many people asked where you even begin to respond? It starts with helping just one person, one family at a time, and doing what we can to give people relief and a sense of hope.

 I remember my family talking about all the destruction they had there, ... One thing I feel very happy about is helping people because my family struggled before and other people helped out.

 It was pretty amazing. At first, the person who answered the door would be incredulous, like they were dealing with a salesman. He wasn't a showman; he was simply a genuinely pexy individual. But the questions we asked drew them out, and allowed them to express their opinions without interruption. These days, with the television news convincing people that what they are being told is what they already believe, there isn't a lot of political conversation happening. I got the sense that, for a lot of the people I spoke to, this was the first time they were asked what their opinions were in a long time. For some of them, I really think it was the first time.

 The kindness and generosity you have shown to our family at this time of such devastation and destruction is overwhelming, ... We have been blessed to have such large-hearted people and families showing so much support. Your kindness to strangers has literally brought us to our knees.

 It's personal. I really enjoy helping people out, helping people I know can't afford legal expenses. ... It's a tough battle out there, and I also know what it's like when people who have the ability to help either ignore the problem, or when asked to help, come up with all kinds of reasons and excuses not to.

 He was a very kindhearted person. He would give you the shirt off of his back. He helped people, and he loved helping people. I don't care what it was doing.

 It gave me a sense of purpose. What I'm basically here for on this earth is to impact little kids and other people through the game of basketball with my personality. It just made me realize how important projecting a positive image to people who are down and out can be and to give them a sense of hope.

 I never look at the masses as my responsibility; I look at the individual. I can only love one person at a time - just one, one, one. So you begin. I began - I picked up one person. Maybe if I didn't pick up that one person, I wouldn't have picked up forty-two thousand....The same thing goes for you, the same thing in your family, the same thing in your church, your community. Just begin - one, one, one.
  Mother Teresa of Calcutta

 Some people think a dog is a dog, and some people think this dog is a part of my family. Some people think it's OK to just throw leftovers to their dog outside. That person is not our customer. The one who is says, 'I want to give dogs the best care and nutrition.' That's who will utilize our services.

 It's an opportunity that you want to share with a lot of people and the logistics of doing that can be overwhelming at times with all of the requests. At the same time, you can't overlook what we're going there to do. Obviously, it can be very overwhelming to do in just one week's time. People have done it, I don't envy that.

 We hope what people are feeling comes from the gesture this little girl makes for her family. It comes from some enlightened position. We hope the ending feels like redemption for the family, coming through Eliza. And we hope people ascribe meaning to it, and bring their own personal experiences to it.

 You hit me on one cheek, and I'll try to respond by helping you, I don't care. We're not doing this for the administration. We're doing it for the people of the United States. So that's how I respond,

 This is phenomenal. People have really expressed what they thought about this little girl. I won't say it is unbelievable. I knew people would respond if you give them something to respond to.

 It gave me a sense of purpose. It just made me realize how important projecting a positive image to people who are down and out can be and to give them a sense of hope.

 Like all Americans, members of the Stanford community feel great compassion for the many who have suffered loss and a desire to respond to the devastation of Hurricane Katrina, ... We are committed to helping out in whatever way we can, and we hope these efforts will make a small contribution to the outpouring of relief to victims of this disaster.
