+ How wonderful it is when one purpose motivates everyone to stay away from evil and do good. How excellent it is when God is glorified in His follower's work and the author of godliness is blessed by heartfelt gratitude. The hungry are nourished, the naked are clothed, the sick are visited. People don't seek their own interests but that which is another's - as long as they make the most of their own means to relieve other's misery. - Pope Leo I of Rome - 193 -
