’T CONFUSE Humility with desertion.

The truly humble spirit possesses the courage to serve in all circumstances.

Cooperation with subservience.

Servility is of no help in any aid mission.

Joviality with unseemly extroversion.

Optimism calls for correctness and serenity.

Ideal with whim.

Whoever flees reality falls asleep in a nightmare.

Understanding with fear.

Fear obfuscates reason.

Study with negligence.

Without method, all effort falls short of its purpose.

Peace with sadness.

Noble sentiment is ignorant of morbid consternation.

Careful consideration with self-centeredness.

Whoever expresses a considered opinion, in the better sense. depersonalizes his thoughts.

Discipline with domination.

Order acts with principle, and authoritarianism encourages violence.

Love with partiality.

Pure love makes no distinction between ways of manifesting itself.

Shun the cheapening of the real values of life.

Man is distinguished from the other beings of creation by his faculty for distinguishing good from evil, truth from error, and the just from the unjust in the movement of his own steps.
