The ethic of Reverence for Life is the ethic of Love widened into universality.

Out of My Life and Thought : An Autobiography (1933)

Profound love demands a deep conception and out of this develops reverence for the mystery of life. It brings us close to all beings, to the poorest and smallest as well as all others.
