Mybelief not only has given me a happylifebut has made possible any really useful work I have done.Of course I like people, too. As a newspaperman for twenty years in this country, Europe and Australia, I met all kinds

5、he peoples instincts are almost always right. You can trust them.

Her very first comment, expressing what was uppermost in her mind, was given with an almost exalted look: Seiior, now our children will learn to read and write.It was a wonderful thing to see people animated by theseideals,

7、 carrying out a bloodless revolution. I remember a dance at which the lights were turned out during the playing of the new republican anthem because, as one republic leader told me 7 this is a social affair and we dont want to see who wont stand up! That the counterrevolution was cruel and bitter do

8、es not change the fact that the people themselves in those years of progress were gentle and tolerant.I know nothing that proves the spirit of divinity in human beings more than the presss preoccupation with evil. As a newspaperman myself, I always preferred digging into stories of violence or crime

9、 or betrayal because they were so unusual. I once wrote a history of political corruption in America, and after years of research I had to base it on fewer than one per cent of our public servants. Searching for crooks brought me into contact historically speaking with many more honest men. I hardly

On the day that I find myself being surprised by evidences of loyalty and Integrity and tolerance in my fellow men, then I will have lost my faith.精選英語美文：藝術家的責任Very early in my life, an important event took place: i

11、n my impressionable and youthful years, I discovered the personality of St. Francis. Since that time, my main ambition has been canalized into a strong desire to serve my neighbor by putting at his disposal the fruits of my knowledge, theresults of my studying, the development of my innate talent, a

12、nd the development of my skill as a performer; plus, my love!My dream has always been to master myself for the sake of serving better and being of more use to my fellow man. My concern and love for him made me realize an additional responsibility, which my fame as an artist brought to me, and that i

13、s my responsibility as a human being towards thoseofmy fellow men who might look to me for guidance.Soon after I had the privilege to come to this country, I realized how important it was to become an example, and I will mention two events which have reinforced this, my belief.Some years ago, during

Naturally, they were not able to pay for all that they needed, so I decided to take my vacation by accepting this responsible job of blood custodian.I was driving in a truck

15、 to various towns within a hundred miles of Minneapolis and taking charge of setting up the Mobile Unit in each town.The Red Cross administration thought it advisable to advertise the fact that I was working for them, in order to attract public interest.
