God doesn't help those who help themselves; He helps those who can't help themselves!

Joyce Meyer

I think that's one of the only reasons God created celebrities. To help those who can't help themselves.

Milla Jovovich

One of the greatest things you can do to help others is not just to share and give what you have, but to help them discover what they have within themselves to help themselves.

Rita Zahara

If you really want to help, then help others to be more present. Help others to free themselves from the past. Help others to take responsibility for themselves. Help them to see how they are creating their own suffering. Every now and then, you will encounter innocent ones who are suffering through no fault of their own, particularly animals and children. Do not hesitate! Help them.

Leonard Jacobson

It’s not 'those who help themselves' whom God helps; it’s those who humble themselves.

C. J. Mahaney

For one cannot assume that God exists to help people who are too cowardly and too lazy to help themselves and think that God exists only to make up for the weakness of mankind. He does not exist for that purpose. He has always, at all times, blessed only those who were prepared to fight their own battles.

Adolf Hitler

The best kind of charity is to help those who are willing to help themselves.

P. T. Barnum

It is a waste of money to help those who show no desire to help themselves.

Taylor Caldwell

Whatever help we may want from the international community now or in the future, we want to make sure that this help is tailored to help our people to help themselves.

Aung San Suu Kyi

The world's proverb is, "God help the poor, for the rich can help themselves;" but to our mind, it is just the rich who have most need of Heaven's help. Dives in scarlet is worse off than Lazarus in rags, unless Divine love shall uphold him.

Charles Spurgeon

God helps those who help themselves.

Benjamin Franklin

There's a duality of a guy calling on God: 'Where are you when I need you?' and then, at the same time, 'God helps those who help themselves.' I think that contradiction does exist in all of us, those of faith and those who profess to have no faith.
