A child cannot be taught by anyone who despises him, and a child cannot afford to be fooled.

What is wonderful is that love lies not outside as a reward, like a gold star for being a good helper, but within the act itself. For when you offer yourself in service, it opens your own heart so that you may once again taste the sweetness of your own heart’s innate compassion.
