Doctors Without Borders Quotes

• The people who have impressed me most - and the closest I've come to having heroes - are the people who have devoted their lives to making things better for others. These are people whose names you never hear, people who work for Doctors Without Borders, Oxfam, and other humanitarian groups. They're just out there in the world, doing stuff.

• Following the devastating India Ocean tsunami of 2004, I founded Chefs for Humanity, modeled after Doctors Without Borders, but comprised of chefs. There wasn't anything out there like it, and there was a definite need for chefs to be able to offer assistance and aid to those suffering from hunger and/or malnutrition worldwide.

• I'd like to refocus everyone's attention away from the Kardashians and onto Doctors Without Borders or aid workers. Let's redefine scandal. Scandal is not who so-and-so is dating; scandal is the fact that 1.2 million people are still living in tents in Haiti, and cholera is rampant because Nepalese U.N. soldiers dumped s- from their Porta-Potties into the river. That's a f-ing scandal. If the average 15-year-old was hearing about that instead of so-and-so's plastic surgery or cheating in Hollywood, I'd feel better about our future.

• The supportive care that we're able to provide in the United States is so much better, so much more sophisticated, than what's available in West Africa. ... So we can move that needle of survival way down. Even Doctors Without Borders in West Africa are moving the fatality rate from 50 percent down to 30 percent-I bet we can do substantially better than that here.

• Sé que si siento alguna privación o miedo [por el dinero], la solución es dar. La solución es ir a buscar a algunas madres por las calles de San Rafael y darles billetes de diez y veinte y enviar por correo otros 50 dólares a Médicos Sin Fronteras para que los destinen a los refugiados de Kosovo. Porque sé que dar es la forma en que podemos sentirnos abundantes. Dar es la forma en que nos llenamos.... Para mí, la manera de llenarme es a través del servicio y del compartir, y haciendo que yo mismo dé más de lo que me siento cómodo dando.
