We get richer and richer in filthier and filthier communities until we reach a final state of affluent misery - crocus on a garbage heap.
One exemplary act may affect one life, or even millions of lives. All those who set standards for themselves, who strengthen the bonds of community, who do their work creditably and accept individual responsibility, are building the common future.
