Who wants to do good in this world must deny oneself. A man does not live on this Earth to be happy or to be honest only - he has to do great things for humanity, achieve the generosity of the spirit and rise above the banality where most of the people are drowning and wasting their days.
Irving StoneTo try to understand another human being, to grapple for his ultimate depths, that is the most dangerous of human endeavors.
