Philip Yancey Quote
I have mentioned that no one offers the name of a philosopher when I ask the question, Who helped you most? Most often they answer by describing a quiet, unassuming person. Someone who was there whenever needed, who listened more than talked, who didn’t keep glancing down at a watch, who hugged and touched, and cried. In short, someone who was available, and came on the sufferer’s terms and not their own.
