to

can

> never experienced this has only a set of superficial principles.

>

> These theories have no root in him, they do not belong to him, and

> they fall off him......Reverence for life comprises the whole

ethic

> of love in its deepest and highest sense. It is the source of

> constant renewal for the individual and for mankind.(Respect for

life
