“By far the most dangerous foe we have to fight is apathy - indifference from whatever cause, not from a lack of knowledge, but from carelessness, from absorption in other pursuits, from a contempt bred of self satisfaction”

                                                        - William Osler

But if anyone has the world's goods and sees his brother in need, yet closes his heart against him, how does God's love abide in him?

                                                        - 1 John 3:17
