"The life of society can only be improved by the self-denial of the individual" -- Tolstoy
They say that one swallow does not make summer. But is it not precisely because one swallow does not make summer that the swallow which cannot sense the onset of summer but simply waits for it to arrive will never fly? If you had to wait for every bud to blossom and every blade of grass to grow, then you would never have a summer. In just the same way, in the process of establishing God's kingdom on earth we don't need to think whether we are the first or the thousandth swallow. -- Tolstoy
