Tolerance.
I’he highest result of education, is tolerance. Long ago men fought and died for their faith ; but it took ages to teach them the other kind of courage the courage to recognise the faiths of their brethren, am 1 their rights of conscience. Tolerance is the first principle of community ; it is the spirit which conserves the best that all men think. Ao loss by Hood and lightning, no destruction of cities and temples by the hostile forces of nature*, has deprived man of so many noble lives and impulses, as those which his intolerance has destroyed.— Helen Keller.
