Quotes

• “Jesus teaches that human need must always be helped; that there is no greater task than to relieve someone's pain and distress and that the Christian's compassion must be like God's—unceasing. Other work may be laid aside but the work of compassion never.”
• “All life is based on the fact that anything worth getting is hard to get. There is a price to be paid for anything. Scholarship can only be bought at the price of study, skill of craft or technique can only be bought at the price of practice, and eminence in any sport can only be bought at the price of training and discipline.”
• “It is only by refusing to accept the situation that in the end we can change the situation.”
• “Any creed or ideology or religion must be known and tested by its fruits, and its fruits are people.”
