"This is the way of the righteous and those who improve society, who love peace and rejoice in the good in people and bring them close to Torah: That nothing - not even a grain of mustard - should be lost to the world; that they should regret any loss or destruction that they see; and if possible they will prevent any destruction that they can."
- Sefer HaChinuch 529
