The source of her strength is in her belief in an idea â€“ the idea that those who are strong, and those who are able, protect those who are not, and those who cannot protect themselves. The idea that the good, and the right, will triumph. She is willing to put herself in harmâ€™s way â€“ in mortal danger â€“ to prove her belief in this idea.â€ â€œThat it is the duty of those who have within themselves the power, and the gift, to help others.”

If you actually do something about what's in front of you, then you are actually contributing and you haven't got time to be self-centred or sorry for yourself. You should be doing something about the person you really should feel sorry for.”
