SOCIAL COOPERATION

What good did the creatures of the earth do to the clouds that pour the rain? So indeed should you serve society, seeking no return. Good men put forth industry and produce wealth, not for themselves but for the use of society. Wealth is not to be earned for the purpose of self indulgence or for satisfaction of greed.

Wealth should be treated as the citizen's instrument for helpfulness. The word is not just helpfulness but helpfulness combined with a sense of duty. There is no pleasure in this or in the other world equal to the joy of being helpful to those around you. Do not lose the opportunity for this rare pleasure.
