To Learn To See- To Accustom The Eye To Calmness, To Patience, And To Allow Things To Come Up To It; To Defer Judgment, And To Acquire The Habit Of Approaching And Grasping An Individual Case From All Sides.

One Hears - One Does Not Seek; One Takes - One Does Not Ask Who Gives.

Christianity Is Called The Religion Of Pity.
