Utterance from this supreme visionary

“The [Afrikan] of sterling character is the great builder. He [or she] is not only a builder of [the person self], but according to his [or her] opportunities builds around [the self]. [The Afrikan] builds his [or her] environments, [the Afrikan] builds his [or her] community. [the Afrikan] builds his [or her] country, and…helps to build a [righteous] world. The greatest possession of [the Afrikan] is character…So few [souls] pay attention to the most essential natural element in good living. If more people had devoted themselves to the development of good character there would have been less misery and less unhappiness in the world…With sterling character you can destroy [wickedness] and rebuild [a righteous world], you can go down into the depths and then rise to the heights, you can meet adversity and laugh at it on the way back to prosperity. It is only a characterless [alien] coward who goes down permanently. The [Afrikan] of sterling worth, with the urge of honesty, of self-confidence, of nobility, sees no defeat, [and purges the self of alien imposition], he [or she] must climb to the surface’”.
