...developing world and devoting their lives to making a difference. As you quoted Winston Churchill, we truly do "make a life by what we give." Thank you, Time, for opening the eyes and expanding the hearts of all of us. (The Rev.) Hollie Tapley Statesboro, Georgia, U.S. As an inner-city 24-year-old who is tired of seeing the adulation of selfish and materialistic athletes and musicians, I am grateful that Time has underscored the real qualities that make a person a hero. Displaying love and empathy for the victims of severe misfortune, those caring people put the true...
...those orphanages, so we know what was at stake. Does publicly humiliating China save lives? Or is China more effectively motivated by other things, like trade agreements?" How did a writer known for parsing personal dilemmas get interested in the political kind? The answer may lie in the inner turmoil Tan faced just before fate led her to Burma.

Displaying love and empathy for the victims of severe misfortune, those caring people put the true value of the human spirit in the limelight. Your issue on Global Health and altruistic heroes forced me to ask, What kind of man am I if I do not help make this world better...
...sing any faster, who got his style because he didn’t have any other shirts. Initially, Phoenix’s low-emotion performance seems stilted, but from the first moment he sings a note, everything springs into relief. Glimmers of Cash’s shy, awkward inner self shine through the blustery tough-guy front he puts up for the public. This is a man who famously sang, “I shot a man in Reno/just to watch him die,” but, faced with June Carter’s wisecracks, turns into a blushing fool...
