If each note of music were to say;

One note does not make a symphony,

There would be no symphony.

If each word were to say;One word does not make a

book,There would be no book.If each drop of water were to

say;One drop does not make an

ocean,

There would be no ocean. If each seed were to say;One grain does not make a

field of corn,There would be no harvest.If each of us were to say;One act of love cannot save

mankindThere would never be

justice and peace on earth.

Begin now, why are you waiting?

Michel Quoist
