In other words the superiority (mạnh hơn) of one man over another is only on the basis of God-consciousness, purity of character and high morals (đạo đức), and not on the basis of colour, race, language or nationality, and even this superiority based on piety and pure conduct does not justify that such people should play lord or assume airs of superiority over other human beings.

Archbishop Conti paid tribute to a family man “loved” by his constituents (cấu thành), adding: “High office did not lead Michael to assume airs and graces, he did not need to – he had a natural grace.”
