Each month, Rotary International highlights a piece of Rotary history and shares an inspirational quote from pat Rotary leaders.
February's quote comes from Gian Paolo Lang, 1956-57 RI president addres to 1957 convention.
"The spirit of Rotary is not exclusive; it expands. It is not local, it is universal. And so the wish to understand and to be understood, the wish to see the virtues rather than the faults in others, the longing to find out what we have in common rather than what divides us — these can be widely shared."
