Utterance from this supreme visionary

“[Afrikans] who want to be of use to themselves and [their race] must have good character. Good character means the demonstration of the kind of behaviour that meets the moral precepts of a civilisation; the standard that is laid down by the society of the time in which you live and which forms a part of and guides that very character.

If you do not live up to those standards, in the highest sense, you will not be respected to that society. Your mission in the society for useful work will fall to pieces.

The greatest prop to character is honesty. Honesty is the best policy. Let no one believe that you are dishonest [especially with those of the race genuinely missioning for Afrikan ascension], you are doomed. You will never able to rise to a position of respect and trust except by some mere accident. You must live so clean that [the race] can see the cleanliness of your life.

Never let [Afrikan souls] believe that you are a liar, but the contrary. Let them believe that you always speak the truth and live up to it”.
