Understanding this quote
The speaker wants to take an active part in the world’s “great redemption,” not merely receive its benefits. “Claim” suggests seeking a rightful share, while “earn” adds the idea that this share should be deserved through one’s own contribution. The sentence therefore presents redemption as something in which people can participate and for which they can work.
