William Farber on ....

Those who came to me, came with some inner flame; It has been my mission to nurture, to feed that flame, and at all costs never to kill it."

When a student calls and wants to talk, I tell them to come over right now. I find a student is conditioned to want to get help. They may not the next day. If you have them come right then, it is a great advantage."

The keys to a happy, acceptable, and productive existence are participation, involvement, and concern for others."

To broaden one's horizons, travel and experimentation and bold thinking must be the goals."

Why is Christian Science in our name?

Our name is about honesty. The Monitor is owned by The Christian Science Church, and we’ve always been transparent about that.

The Church publishes the Monitor because it sees good journalism as vital to progress in the world. Since 1908, we’ve aimed “to injure no man, but to bless all mankind,” as our founder, Mary Baker Eddy, put it.

Here, you’ll find award-winning journalism not driven by commercial influences – a news organization that takes seriously its mission to uplift the world by seeking solutions and finding reasons for credible hope.
