Men with noble hearts are never long
without hearing a call of God to do
some real work. They never seem to
camp long in real idleness. They break
the camp of ease. They commence a
fresh start desiring to do some real
service for humanity. Real noble men
never live in house by the side of the
road but are out in the throng doing
for humanity.
