Epictetus teaches: One cannot pursue one’s own highest good without at the same time necessarily promoting the good of others. A life based on narrow self-interest cannot be esteemed by any honorable measurement. Seeking the very best in ourselves means actively caring for the well being of other human beings. Our human contract is not with the few people with whom our affairs are most immediately intertwined, not to the prominent/rich/well-educated, but to all our human brethren.

View yourself as a citizen of a worldwide community and act accordingly.

The recent variations on this theme include “justice delayed is justice denied” and “injustice anywhere is a threat to justice everywhere”.  Wethepeopleforall believe that every person is capable of making a difference by actively caring for the well being of other human beings and that doing so promotes the concept of liberty and justice for all.
