Read the following excerpt from "Woman Who Helped
Hide Anne Frank Dies at 100" by Teri Schultz.

Ms. MIEP GIES: I, myself, I'm just a very common person. I simply had no choice. I could foresee many, many sleepless nights and a life filled with regret if I would have refused to help the Franks. And this was not the kind of life I was looking for at all.
SCHULTZ: Gies explained another motivation for
emphasizing her modesty. She said if people are allowed to think it takes remarkable qualities to act boldly on behalf
of others, few will attempt it.
Ms. GIES: People should never think that you have to be a very special person to help those who need you.

A. "People should never think that you have to be a very special person to help those who need you."

Explanation:

Miep Gies was mostly famous for helping Jew families (including Frank family) hide during the Nazi occupation of Amsterdam, for over a two-year period.

In this excerpt we see her motivation for such a heroic act. She didn't do it for fame or publicity; she did it only because she considered it to be her moral duty as a human being helping another human being in a distress. She also states that if she hadn't done so, she knew she wouldn't have been able to sleep at night and live with it.

Additionally, she states that helping other people should be a normal, everyday thing, rather then being regarded as something special.

All this can be summarized into her statement: "People should never think that you have to be a very special person to help those who need you".

1. read the following excerpt from franklin d. roosevelt's "fireside chat 19":

on the other side of the picture, we must learn also to know that guerilla warfare against the germans in, let us say serbia or norway, us; that a successful russian offensive against the germans us; and that british successes on land or sea in any part of the world strengthen our hands.

remember always that germany and italy, regardless of any formal declaration of war, consider themselves at war with the united states at this moment just as much as they consider themselves at war with britain or russia. and germany puts all the other republics of the americas into the same category of enemies. the people of our sister republics of this hemisphere can be honored by that fact.  

the true goal we seek is far above and beyond the ugly field of battle. when we resort to force, as now we must, we are determined that this force shall be directed toward ultimate good as well as against immediate evil. we americans are not destroyers — we are builders.
