World investment will be made in the production of fulfilled human lives. The wealth of the community will be assessed by the number of human beings it embraces who are qualified to carry on and to improve... the development and the exchange of knowledge, art and science between all peoples. Nations, communities... will be valued only by this criterion — their contribution to the whole, not to their environment alone but to mankind.
