---- DAILY ENCOURAGEMENT ----
"René Dubos (1901-82), the eminent French-American microbiologist whom I met at the recommendation of British historian Arnold J. Toynbee (1889-1975), warned: 'Despite our scientific and technological triumphs we suffer from a loss of nerve and have become a conservative society satisfied with continuing on our present course.'
"Humankind today needs courage and hope to choose a new path of change -- for the sake of achieving sustainable development and for lasting peace. The noble mission of the SGI is to impart the energy of courage and the philosophy of hope to societies around the world.
"Our movement is not something abstract or beyond the scope of daily life. It is manifested in our relationships with those in our immediate surroundings, the people around us, in our neighbourhoods, communities, and societies. It is a movement that spreads from individual to individual, through sincere and earnest one-on-one dialogue."
