Quote of the Day (Jane Addams, on the Motive Behind Universal Brotherhood)


“The good we secure for ourselves is precarious and uncertain, is floating in mid-air, until it is secured for all of us and incorporated into our common life.”—Anti-poverty activist and Nobel Peace Prize winner Jane Addams (1860-1935), Twenty Years at Hull House (1910)
