Being Of Service To Others Quotes

“The bee is more honored than other animals not because she labors, but because she labors for others.”
― Saint John Chrysostom

“I think sometimes I feel like I have to run in with the fire hose and the helmet on and save these people. But sometimes the lesson really is: That person can walk down the stairs and out the door themselves.

Do I really need to put myself through that emotional experience? Is this of service? Or is this just my ego finding and deriving self-esteem by rescuing somebody?”
