"The long fight for Tibet has continued for many decades and will be carried on and on until at last it is His. … Let no young man think that it was a mistake that he should bury his particularly fine abilities in mission work in Asia; for it requires in the service of the Kingdom of God just as high an order of intelligence, just as great concentration, just as fine tact, and just as much "punch" as are required to run any great business concern. Come on, young men, and let's help to make the last nation on earth a part of the Kingdom of our Lord and Saviour Jesus Christ."
