“THE MORE SHALL WE LOVE
We have to bear in mind that
we are all debtors to the world,
and that the world does not owe us anything.
It is a great privilege for all of us to be
allowed to do anything for the world.
In helping the world we truly help ourselves.
This world will always continue to be
a mixture of good and evil.
Our duty is to help
and sympathize with the weak,
and to love even the wrongdoer.
It is important to always keep in mind
that the world is for us a grand moral gymnasium,
wherein we are all blessed to be able to
take exercise in order to become
stronger and stronger spiritually.
The result of this exercise is that
the more selfless we become,
the more we shall love,
and the better will be our work.”
