O Brother Man
O brother man, fold to thy heart thy brother;
Where pity dwells, the peace of God is there;
To worship rightly is to love each other,
Each smile a hymn, each kindly deed a prayer.
James Russell Lowell
"I inherited a belief that, in the very radical sense of the gospels, all men were equals as children of God, and should be met and treated by us as our masters."
Dag Hammarskjold
For you were called to freedom, brothers and sisters; only do not use your freedom as an opportunity for self-indulgence, but through love become slaves to one another. For the whole law is summed up in a single commandment, "You shall love your neighbor as yourself."
Galatians 5: 13-14
Whether poetry, testimony or scripture moves you, you get the picture. We are our brother’s keeper. We forget this at our peril.
