Felix Adler
In a country of such recent civilization as ours, whose almost limitless treasures of material wealth invite the risks of capital and the industry of labor, it is but natural that material interests should absorb the attention of the people to a degree elsewhere unknown.
Felix Adler
The conception of worth, that each person is an end per se, is not a mere abstraction. Our interest in it is not merely academic.

A human being is not to be handled as a tool but is to be respected and revered.
Felix Adler
