THE HISTORY OF THE NEIGHBOR

 THE HISTORY OF THE NEIGHBOR

The true history of a civilization is not written only in its governments, wars, or monuments, but in the lives of its neighbors. Laws reveal what a nation declares; neighbors reveal what a nation practices. The measure of a people is found not merely in the heights of its achievements, but in the depth of its compassion, the strength of its communities, and the dignity it extends to the ordinary person. History remembers the builders of cities, but Heaven remembers those who built one another. The history of the neighbor is the history that gives every civilization its truest meaning.
