The Motto of Social Ethic 

It is only healthy
When the whole society is formed
In the mirror of the Human soul.

And when, in each community 
The virtue of the individual soul
Is living.                                               Rudolf Steiner

Outwardly:          Threefold structure of Society;

Inwardly:              Loving recognition of our fellow human beings.
