"We can each give at least our fair share, even if it isn’t really such a consistent approach to world citizenship. We can recognize that our fair share is insufficient, that most of us fall short of ideal morality in many ways. That shouldn’t stop us moving in the direction that Hierocles recommended. The more we can haul in that outer circle of humanity, the better for all."
From "Cosmopolitans" by Nigel Warburton is a writer, philosopher and podcaster. From Aeon
