“Interdependence is and ought to be as much the ideal of man as self-sufficiency. Man is a social being.

His social interdependence enables him to test his faith and to prove himself on the touchstone of reality.”

He simply raised the question of distinction between kinsmen and others, much in the same way that a fond mother would advance arguments favouring her child.”
