Coach Gowron: Should you refuse to show compassion because you believe it would make you appear weak, then you have misunderstood what strength is. It is honorable to have concern for others, to show empathy and to offer aid to someone in distress. To rebuke this is cowardice, not strength.

I chose this sentiment when I decorated my banjo

One of my mother's favorite sayings is "There is nothing so strong as gentleness, and nothing so gentle as true strength."

THIS. Willie showed no concern about my health after I put two dozen eggs in the microwave and it inexplicably exploded. NO. It was all 'don't do that ALF' and 'microwaves cost money ALF'. WELL SO DOES MY NOSE!!!

I had no idea Willie laid eggs, but while his anger was understandable it was irresponsible for him to leave them unattended like that.

True strength is lifting others up, not pushing them down.
