"If we are striving, if we are working, if we are trying, to the best of our ability, to improve day by day, then we are in the line of our duty."

Since a rational man's ambition is unlimited, since his pursuit and achievement of values is a life-long process — and the higher the values, the harder the struggle — he needs a moment, an hour or some period of time in which he can experience the sense of his completed task, the sense of living in a universe where his values have been successfully achieved.
