Sharing crumbs

There is a beggar I sometimes see near Syntagma Square in Athens.  He sits on the pavement, knees drawn up, face hidden on his knees so all one can see is the back of his curly head and an outstretched hand.  Sleeping or too embarrassed to show his face, it's hard to tell.  I sometimes give him something--when I can I prefer to give food rather than money.   There's a McDonald's nearby where I sometimes buy a snack or a hot coffee for him or others like him I come across, but the other day when I had seen him in his usual spot I happened to have more time so I went some distance to buy him a proper hot meal: roast chicken, rice, a bar of chocolate for dessert.
As I returned to the square with his meal I saw him from the trolley window.  He was sitting up, eating some bread.  He had broken some of the bread up into little crumbs and was tossing them to the pigeons that had gathered at his feet.  I was moved to see that despite his poverty he still shared the little he had with other hungry creatures. When I gave him the bag with the meal I told him that God would bless him for his kindness.  It was true on that day at least, he gave breadcrumbs and got a hot meal in return.  And I was more blessed than words can tell, privileged to have been used by Providence to repay a poor man's big-hearted gesture.

The darkest places in hell...

'The darkest places in Hell are reserved for those who maintain their neutrality in times of moral crisis.'
This prefaces Dan Brown's Inferno, which I am currently reading.
Brown's books are entertaining but not academic, so I did an internet search for the exact source to check the implication that this comes from Dante's La Divina Commedia (Divine Comedy).  Although this has been quoted often, most notably by President JF Kennedy, I have not found the precise canto in Dante's masterpiece this supposedly comes from.  So until I re-read the original I am afraid I cannot vouch for its accuracy.

During my search I also came across another unauthenticated quote along similar lines, this one attributed to Edmund Burke:
'All that is necessary for evil to triumph is for good men to do nothing.'

And of course in a similar vein are the famous lines by Lutheran Pastor Dietrich Bonnhoeffer, but also ascribed to Evangelical Theologian Martin Niemoeller (I've conflated various versions below):
'First they came for the Communists
but I did not speak out, as I was not a Communist
Then they came for the Socialists/Trade Unionists/Catholics/Jews
but I was silent, as I was not a Socialist/Trade Unionist/Catholic/Jew
And when they came for me,
there was no-one left to speak out for me.'

All the above by way of reply to well-meaning friends who have warned me to be careful about what I blog about, lest GD or others retaliate.
