"Those making steady, persistent efforts are the most respect-worthy. Those making virtuous unseen efforts will definitely come to shine with unsurpassed visible reward.
"…President Toda said: 'The Daishonin's Buddhism is a teaching that enables people struggling amid adversity to become happy without fail. When we challenge difficulties head-on based on faith, we can bring forth the most amazing power of the Buddha. By becoming such people, we can truly encourage others and be a friend to those who are suffering.'"
