Quote by Walter Scott
The race of mankind would perish did they cease to aid each other.

The race of mankind would perish did they cease to aid each other. We cannot exist without mutual help. All therefore that need aid have a right to ask it from their fellow-men and no one who has the power of granting can refuse it without guilt. – Walter Scott
