"We Are Few But We Are Called Armenians.
[...]
We don't put ourselves above anyone ...
[...]
... everywhere we went...
We gave them mind, proverbs and songs..,
and a sacrement of our heart itself,
in short,
We defended them from spiritual coldness
.. and we did so
... to learn to become the students of
the Beautiful
the Kind
the Noble
and
the Good
... being few we do not succumb
for it is better to be few in life - than to control life by being many
because its better to be few - than being masters by being many
for it is better to be few - than to be SWINDLERS...
... And if it is needed to depress darkness - we can turn to ashes like burning candles ...
