If you see someone choking, first call the emergency services. Then, make sure that the victim is really choking: A choking person cannot speak. Slapping the victim’s back will often force out the obstruction. If this does not work, you can perform the Heimlich manoeuvre by standing behind him and wrapping your arms around his waist. Make a fist with one hand and place it in the upper part of his stomach. Grabbing your fist with your other hand tightly, push up and into his stomach in one motion. Continue doing this until the obstruction is forced out.

It serves as a call (呼吁) for learning first-aid as a way to help others and ourselves as well.
A proper quote can show the character’s moral (品德), the theme or serves as a strong call for certain action.
The quote in the end depends on your theme.

“Accidents do happen; make first-aid your best mate.”
first-aid
“You don’t have to be a doctor to save lives.”
“Next to creating a life the finest thing a man can do is to save one.” -- Abraham Lincoln
“We all have the power to save a life.”
You can choose either a part of the character’s saying or a great man’s as long as your quote helps strengthen your theme.
