An advertisement from Wall Street Journal, oct 15, 2001. Cheer up !!
On the early morning of Sept. 11 we saw that what people are capable of: hate, destruction and wanton disregard for human life.
By the late morning of Sep.11 we saw what people are capable of: strength, caring, courage and a profound commitment to human life.
We have been reminded that virtue is timeless.
And we have been reminded that virtue doesn't happen by chance.
Virtue happens by choice.
Virtue is made real by individulas who assert it in times of distress.
And in the day-to-day relationships with those around them.
At XXXXX, the values of caring and commitment are the foundation of our company.
In the days ahead, with all those we deal with, we choose to reaffirm them, too.
xxxxx
A business of caring
