And besides that, if anyone ever comes forward and says, "For a philanthropic purpose, for the good of humanity, I give so many millions for education, for the hospitals", it is they who do it. And I would very much wonder if a recluse who has always kept himself away from money, if he had the charge of many millions, would like to part with any. The point is, whether a person is earthly or heavenly, to be true to the purpose of life is the first moral we have to learn. For even an earthly purpose, however material it may seem, will prove in the end to be a stepping-stone even if one had nothing but that ideal before one.
