Let us remember, too, that greatness is not always a matter of the scale of oneโs life, but of the quality of oneโs life. True greatness is not always tied to the scope of our tasks, but to the quality of how we carry out our tasks whatever they are. In that attitude, let us give our time, ourselves, and our talents to the things that really matter now, things which will still matter a thousand years from now.

There would be no test of strength, no development of character, no growth of powers, no free agency, only satanic controls.
