THE GREATEST WANT OF THE WORLD

DIOGENES LOOKING FOR AN HONEST MAN.

The greatest want of the world is the want of men-- men who will not be bought or sold, men who in their inmost souls are true and honest, men who do not fear to call sin by its right name, men whose conscience is as true to duty as the needle to the pole, men who will stand for the right though the heavens fall. {Ed 57.3}
--------------------------------------------------------------------------

La mayor necesidad del mundo es la de hombres que no se vendan ni se compren; hombres que sean sinceros y honrados en lo mas intimo de sus alma; hombres que no teman dar al pecado el nombre que le corresponde; hombres cuya conciencia sea tan leal al deber como la brujula al polo; hombres que se mantengan de parte de la justicia aunque se desplomen los cielos.
La Educacion, pg.54, Ellen G. White.
