'The greatest want of the world is the want of men,
-men who will not be bought or sold;
men who in their inmost souls are true and honest;
men who do not fear to call sin by its right name;
men whose conscience is as true to duty as the needle to the pole;
men who will stand for the right though the heavens fall.' Education, p.57. (1903)
[From a compilation, Corporteur Ministry (1953), also based on the writings of Ellen G White.]
*And due (grateful) acknowledgement to the **oft-underrated singer-songwriter Billy Joel, to wit the ?opening line/refrain? of his classic hit 'Honesty'.
**Methinks likely due to the fact that he didn't buy into the drug culture so 'popular' and 'celebrated' amongst celebrity stardom in (especially America's) modern music industry's pop culture.
