  To Walter Hampden

“There’s a lot o’ brothers knockin’ abaht as people don’t know on, eh what?  See wot I mean?”

“He that saith he is in the light, and hateth his brother, is in darkness even until now.  He that loveth his brother abideth in the light, and there is none occasion of stumbling in him.  But he that hateth his brother is in darkness, and walketh in darkness and knoweth not whither he goeth, because that darkness hath blinded his eyes. . . .  If a man say, I love God, and hateth his brother, he is a liar:  for he that loveth not his brother whom he hath seen, how can he love God whom he hath not seen?”

  —­I.  John, ii. 9-11, iv. 20.

“The hunger for brotherhood is at the bottom of the unrest of the modern civilized world.”

  —­George Frederick Watts.
