The True History of a Man
Isaiah 13:12
I will make a man more precious than fine gold; even a man than the golden wedge of Ophir.


is the history not of his wars and conquests, not even of his commerce; the true history of a man is the history of his conscience, the history of his moral development; for only that can give permanence and security to his other achievements in science, art, invention, thought.

(Hugh Black, M. A.)
