W H A T W E N E E D We don't need more material development; We need more spiritual developeme'nt. We do not need more intellectual power; We need more moral power. We do not need more knowledge; We need more character. We do not need more government; We need more culture. We do not need more law; We need more religion. We do not need more of the things that are seen; We need more of the things that are unseen.
