Technical know-how of the experts must be transformed into practical do-how of the people.

A worker in the rural reconstruction must have: The body of an athlete The attitude of a teacher The mind of a scientist The heart of a missionary The spirit of a crusader.

We work with the people not out of pity but out of respect for their potential for growth and development, both as individuals and as communities.

Go to the people and live among them in order to know them and learn from them.

Relief has its place. But what the people need is not relief, but release - release of their own potential for development.

When we have a new heart, we become new people, and then we have a new society, then we have a new nation.

The people are the foundation of the nation. Our only chance for a lasting peace on earth: the release of the strength of the common man.
