For all things are for your sakes, that the abundant grace might through the thanksgiving of many redound to the glory of God.

Worldly Brotherhood … p. 7
Time and again, in every area of human endeavour, history shows it is but a few who, for good or ill, initiate momentous change. Thus evermore will it be. Thus too is it essential for mankind that good prevail.
We, in this time and of this age, are society’s custodian and its moral conscience. Hence, it is we, each one of us individually, who must embrace goodness — the embodiment of moral excellence — in behalf of our fellowman. In doing so we are not asking of ourselves anything that we would not otherwise aspire to: We are but living our life after that of Jesus of Nazareth by answering his moral imperative to "love thy neighbour as thyself.” Only thus may we foster worldly brotherhood.
