Why is compassion not part of our established curriculum, an inherent part of our education? Compassion, awe, wonder, curiosity, exaltation, humility - these are the very foundation of any real civilization, no longer the prerogatives, the preserves of any one church, but belonging to everyone, every child in every home, in every school.
Yehudi MenuhinThe ultimate aim in life should be to fulfill to the utmost all that within our ability and to share that which is good and beautiful.
