If you can’t read what it says on the building, here it is:
Accommodate to changing times but cling to unchanging principles
This precept is actually from a speech by former United States President Jimmy Carter. In a speech he gave in China in 2009 he said, “The world changes very rapidly and very often. But the basic principles of life never change. When I made my inaugural speech when I became president of the United States, I quoted words of my own teacher in my small town of Plains. She always told us, ‘we must accommodate changing times, but cling to unchanging principles.’ And those principles are honesty and integrity and hard work and humility.”
“if you have to choose being kind or being right, choose kind and you will always be right.”
