The love of one's neighbors, the sense of duty, truth, and justice, if applied to daily life, would spare mankind countless sufferings, troubles, and anxieties ...

The solution of the problems which oppress the world can only be found in the practice of Charity between individuals and between nations.

-Leopold III, King of the Belgians, 1936
