To Extinguish The Free Will Is To

Every Human Being Has A Work To Carry On Within, Duties To Perform Abroad, Influence To Exert, Which Are Peculiarly His, And Which No Conscience But His Own Can Teach.

Compassionate Saviour! We Welcome Thee To Our World, We Welcome Thee To Our Hearts. We Bless Thee For The Divine Goodness Thou Hast Brought From Heaven; For The Souls Thou Hast Warmed With Love To Man, And Lifted Up In Love To God; For The Efforts Of Divine Philanthropy Which Thou Hast Inspired; And For That Hope Of A Pure Celestial Life, Through Which Thy Disciples Triumph Over Death.

A Man May Quarrel With Himself Alone; That Is, By Controverting His Better Instincts And Knowledge When Brought Face To Face With Temptation.

The Cry Has Been That When War Is Declared, All Opposition Should Therefore Be Hushed. A Sentiment More Unworthy Of A Free Country Could Hardly Be Propagated. If The Doctrine Be Admitted, Rulers Have Only To Declare War And They Are Screened At Once From Scrutiny. . . . In War, Then, As In Peace, Assert The Freedom Of Speech And Of The Press. Cling To This As The Bulwark Of All Our Rights And Privileges.

We Never Know A Greater Character Unless There Is In Ourselves Something Congenial To It.
