“The human power to feel into and for the needs and suffering of others should not be squandered on sentimentality or opinionation; rather, I suggest that this most valuable of assets should be directed intelligently toward aid, the remediation of human difficulties, and the transformation of our relationships and societies. It strikes me that this asset must be properly invested to become fruitful, and that we can learn to remember (literally) the intelligences that catalyze and direct this potential.”
