The Essence Of Man Is Not What

The Riches Of The Soul Are Stored Up In Its Memory. This Is The Test Of Character, Not Whether A Man Follows The Daily Fashion, But Whether The Past Is Alive In His Present.

Society Today Is No Longer In Revolt Against Particular Laws Which It Finds Alien, Unjust, And Imposed, But Against Law As Such, Against The Principle Of Law. And Yet We Must Not Regard This Revolt As Entirely Negative. The Energy That Rejects Many Obsolete Laws Is An Entirely Positive Impulse For Renewal Of Life And Law.

A Test Of A People Is How It Behaves Toward The Old. It Is Easy To Love Children. Even Tyrants And Dictators Make A Point Of Being Fond Of Children. But The Affection And Care For The Old, The Incurable, The Helpless Are The True Gold Mines Of A Culture.

God Is Everywhere Or Nowhere, The Father Of All People Or Of None, Concerned About Everything Or Nothing. Only In His Presence Shall We Learn That The Glory Of Humankind Is Not In Its Will To Power But In Its Power Of Compassion.

A Prophet's True Greatness Is His Ability To Hold God And Man In A Single Thought.
