AML Quote of the Week: 5-10-62 the knowledge we so gain is the fountain and the well-spring of all the power that we possess .. This proves to us that there is but one principle upon which humanity can be saved, and that is the way by which light is brought to the human mind and the latent qualities of the soul are developed. We might extend this view as far as truth has its applications, and we should find the principle still the same, and the only one upon which humanity can be exalted.
AML Quote from Last Week: 3-22-62 The lamp of light must be lighted within us individually.
