Excerpt from The World Beautiful
If one admires the patience, gentleness, sweetness, and unfailing energy of another; if he finds himself renewed and invigorated and inspired by such contact, - why does he not himself so live that he may bring the same renewal and inspiration to others? The responsibility is on each and all of us to live on the ideal plane; to realize in outward action, in every deed and word, those quali ties which we recognize as pertaining to the higher life. For it is these that produce the spiritual. And to live this higher life is to live in happiness, even in holiness. It is the life of peace and love and joy; it is the life of larger sympathies, and, as a result, of larger interests. The more liberal the sym pathy, the more is the interest of life ex tended; and the more extended one's range of interests, the more does one multiply the means and resources of happiness.
