What touches our hearts and impresses us deeper is sacrifice and humility, when we see someone accept the higher principle of cooperation, putting aside his/her own achievements.

It’s not the body that people love, but the soul. The body is a temporary vehicle. Without the soul, the body is like a car without a driver.
