In our daily lives we only feel that man is here for the sake of others, for those whom we love and for many other beings whose fate is connected with our own. I am often worried at the thought that my life is based to such a large extent on the work of my fellow human beings and I am aware of my great indebtedness to them.

The world was sick, and the ills from which it was suffering were mainly due to the perversion of man, his inability to live at peace with himself.
