The greatest living person in the world is some individual who at this very moment has gone in love to help another.

A man can do only what he can do. But if he does that each day he can sleep at night and do it again the next day.

There can be no Kingdom of God in the world without the Kingdom of God in our hearts.

We need a boundless ethic, one which will include the animals, too. Until we extend the circle of his compassions to all living things, we will not find peace.

When we observe contemporary society one thing strikes us. We debate but make no progress. Why? Because as peoples we do not yet trust each other.

Once a man recognizes himself as a being surrounded by other beings in this world and begins to respect his life and take it to the highest value, he becomes a thinking being. Then he values other lives and experiences them as part of his own life. With that, his goal is to help everyone take their life to the highest value; anything which limits or destroys a life is evil. That is morality. That is how men are related to the world around them.

Reverence for life is the highest court of appeal.
