WHY I AM A ROTARIAN: PAUL P. HARRIS
NOVEMBER 11, 2007
WWW.WHYIAM.ORG


Paul's downstairs "Rotary Room" with Silvester Schiele in 1927, at 59 years of age.“Is it not a miracle that Rotary has brought together good and influential men of all civilized countries?

And is it not gratifying to know that there is a platform broad enough for all men to stand on?

And is it not heartwarming to know that men of diverse faiths and allegiances can find so much in each other, which is wholesome and good?

Rotary is an integrating force in a world where disintegrating forces are far more numerous.”

Paul P. Harris
THE ROTARIAN,
June 1944  http://www.whatpaulharriswrote.org/rotarian/1944rotariansget.htm
