6. "And the more unity there is among those closest in thoughts and actions, the brighter the victory will be. To the most patient, the most generous, the warmest gratitude will be brought. ...

Let us be such kings of the spirit!" [Letters of Helena Roerich in 9 Volumes - 5. 096]

For the near-sighted such mercy is unfitting, but for the far-sighted it is as an arrow into the target." [Brotherhood, 86]
