A quiet conscience is
an invention of the Devil.
- Albert

Thou shalt not be a victim. Thou shalt not be a perpetrator.
Above all, thou shalt not be a bystander.
- Holocaust Museum, Washington, DC
Cowardice asks the question, 'Is it safe?' Expediency asks
the question, 'Is it politic?' Vanity asks the question, 'Is
it popular?' But, conscience asks the question, 'Is it right?'
And there comes a time when one must take a position that is
neither safe, nor politic, nor popular, but one must take it
because one's conscience tells one that it is right.
- Martin Luther King Jr.

The Code for Corporate Citizenship - The duty of directors

- Robert Hinkley
In an interconnected world we have great need and basic responsibility,
for our own survival, to attend to the weakest links. By that
I mean those places in the world that suffer, those places in
the world where people die because they are too poor to stay
alive, those parts of the world which -- by virtue of physical
geography, epidemiology, climate stress, rain-fed agriculture
and drought-prone savannah climates for example -- face horrific
challenges to even get onto the ladder of development. One billion
people on the planet are too poor, too hungry, too disease-burdened,
too bereft of the most basic infrastructure even to get on the
ladder of development. The rich world seems to be believe, despite
all the fine speeches (and there have been many), that this
doesn't really matter, because the actions of the rich countries
don't begin to address this problem. We are leaving ten million
people to die every year because they are too poor to stay alive.
Fine speeches will not solve that problem.

We must, however, keep in mind that in our desire to help people
who are poor and powerless, that we do not do so in ways that,
in the long run, keep them poor and powerless ––
and dependent upon us.
