Love for Humanity

Most people seek only their own interests; and a real, genuine love for humanity is, after all, very rare. Yet it carries with it its own reward and its own compensation. Those who have experienced the joys of being of use, of being a comfort, of being a real help, and see the results of their own efforts, —they alone can understand the joy of this ministry.
It is one thing to give to the poor, to belong to an institution that helps the poor, to organize charity among the poor; but it is quite another thing to love the poor.—Bishop Codman, in Churchman.
