Duane Elmer
“Power is to be used in the service of others and only secondarily, if at all, for the benefit of oneself.”
Duane Elmer, Cross-Cultural Servanthood: Serving the World in Christlike Humility

Albert Schweitzer
“I don't know what your destiny will be, but one thing I know: the only ones among you who will be really happy are those who have sought and found how to serve.”
Albert Schweitzer

Mahatma Gandhi
“Do not worry in the least about yourself, leave all worry to God,' - this appears to be the commandment in all religions.
This need not frighten anyone. He who devotes himself to service with a clear conscience, will day by day grasp the necessity for it in greater measure, and will continually grow richer in faith. The path of service can hardly be trodden by one who is not prepared to renounce self-interest, and to recognize the conditions of his birth. Consciously or unconsciously, every one of us does render some service or other. If we cultivate the habit of doing this service deliberately, our desire for service will steadily grow stronger, and will make not only for our own happiness but that of the world at large.”
Mahatma Ghandi

“Service is the rent we pay for being. It is the very purpose of life, and not something you do in your spare time.”
Marian Wright Edelman

Robert Baden-Powell
“The most worth-while thing is to try to put happiness into the lives of others.”
Sir Robert Baden-Powell
