      “We have reduced the world to its present state of chaos by our self-centered activity, by our prejudices, our hatreds, our nationalism, and when we say we cannot do anything about it, we are accepting disorder in ourselves as inevitable.

But if, when we act, we act totally, then our relationship with the world undergoes a tremendous revolution.”
