Beacon Lights

Excerpt from Beacon Lights: Maxims of Cardinal Gibbons

Live in society. No man is sufficient unto himself. We are all mutually and reciprocally dependent on one another, just as the organs of our body are sustained by one another. As an injury to one organ involves a shock to the entire human system, so should the community at large feel a practical sympathy for their fel low-beings in any grievance by which they may be oppressed.
