The failure to persuade either the masses or their leaders to change their way of life and thought is not a reason for abandoning either the inner or outer work as useless. Even though any marked and visible result may not now appear, it may yet do so at a later date. We must have a moral concern which instigates acts aiming at conversion or makes proposals even if they will obviously fail.
