Human greatness, or human perfection, if you so call it, depends very much upon the highest possible development of all the outer and inner qualities and upon the proper use that he makes of the qualities so developed.
Everything has two sides, the exterior and the interior. Its value depends, not so much upon its exterior, as upon its interior side. A box full of diamonds and precious stones is certainly more valuable than a similar, or even better looking box, full of ordinary stones and dust.
A human being has likewise two sides, the external and the internal. He is a combination of body and soul. One is necessary as the other, his ultimate superiority over the rest of the creation depends more upon his inner merits, his intellectual capabilities, his spiritual attainments and the polish and the brilliance of his soul, than upon his exterior form and appearance and qualities of his body.
wah! best!
