“Look up and not down, look forward and not back, look out and not in, and lend a hand!”
Variants of "the Four Mottos":
Look up and not down;
Look out and not in.
Look forward and not back;
Lend a hand!
As used in Our New Crusade (1884)

Look forward and not back;
Look out and not in; —
Lend a hand!
