I always felt that it was my job to try to help other people get it and deal with it.

I have had a career in which, almost without exception, every single person I've worked with has helped me.

It is one of the beautiful compensations in this life that no one can sincerely try to help another without helping himself.

I feel that if you are blessed, or lucky enough, to be doing well, you should help others.

I take advantage of every thing I can - age, hair, disability - because my cause is just.

Understand, this is unemployment insurance. It's not welfare, as a lot of my Republican colleagues like to suggest it is. You pay into it when you're working. You get help when you're not.

I like helping people.

I've always felt that if you've been blessed, you should try to help as many people as you can. I just think that's the right thing to do.

Sometimes you try to help people, and it backfires on you, and then they try to take advantage of you.

I've been on food stamps and welfare. Anybody help me out? No. No. They gave me hope, and they gave me encouragement, and they gave me a vision. That came from my education.
