For man must have a perfect ideal to which he directs his activities. When the ideal is imperfect the progress is imperfect also. If his ideal is the comfort of his family, he will stop at that and go no further. If the nation is his ideal, he will only go as far as that. But unless the international ideal is as much a living reality as is now the national, we cannot look for better times. The international ideal seems just now intolerable to some people and those who sympathize with the idea consider it impossible. In order to fulfill an object like international brotherhood, there must be a powerful impetus behind every act and that is that we must realize the one link.
