Movie Quotes – Day 37

There will be no rescue, no intervention for us. We can only save ourselves. — Hotel Rwanda

In the end, you can only depend on yourself. No man is an island, but no man is never isolated. Learn to rely on yourself, on your skills and resources, and you will not only be better to yourself, but also be a better person to others.

    Can’t help others if you aren’t in any shape to do so. Have to have the skills, abilities and knowledge to take care of yourself first.

    Something has left the American (and many other parts of the world) culture — self reliance isn’t promoted, isn’t praised, it’s frowned upon.
