The Titanic, greatest of ships, has gone to her ocean grave. What
has she left behind her? Think clearly. She has left debts. Vast
sums of money have been lost. Some of them are covered by insurance
which will be paid. The rest is gone. All wealth is insecure. She
has left lessons. The risk of running the northern course when it
is menaced by icebergs is revealed. The cruelty of sending a ship
to sea without enough life-boats and life-rafts to hold her company
is exhibited and underlined in black. She has left sorrows.
Hundreds of human hearts and homes are in mourning for the loss of
dear companions and friends. The universal sympathy which is
written in every face and heard in every voice proves that man is
more than the beasts that perish. It is an evidence of the divine
in humanity. Why should we care? There is no reason in the world,
unless there is something in us that is different from lime and
carbon and phosphorus, something that makes us mortals able to
suffer together-- "For we have all of us an human heart."
