one answer to the world's ills, or one solution to humanity's needs
has done untold harm throughout history.

in his speech on receiving the 2001 Nobel Peace Prize

At times our own light goes out and is rekindled
by a spark from another person.
Each of us has cause to think with deep gratitude
of those who have lighted the flame within us.

Albert Schweitzer
