Can we try to be good Samaritans?

THERE'S a saying that's been quoted again and again through the years, and it's repeated all too often because it's true. It's true that evil prevails when good people do nothing.

I suppose that it's why it's always reassuring to read news of ordinary people standing up to do the right thing, especially when it's done selflessly by someone who doesn't expect anything in return. It’s a clear break from the politicking, bickering and infighting that seems to flood the front pages and web pages lately.
