“If you're feeling helpless, help someone. ”

“I know how it feels to be completely alone and helpless, and the last thing you want to hear in that situation is, 'It's going to be OK.' "The only thing that seems to really help is that someone else who has felt that low expressing those feelings to you.”

“What would you do without me? Say 'nothing.'""Nothing," said the Prince."Good. Then you're helpless and I'll help you.”

“If there's a more helpless feeling than trying to reach someone you love who's trapped underground, I don't know it.”

“That same piercing screech in her voice every time at the hospital. "Do something!" When I slit my wrists. "Help her!" The last time too. "Somebody help her. Help us!" You're helpless, both of you. All of us.”

“You get a happy feeling helping someone read. You feel sort of like a wizard.”
