The reign of tears is over. The slums will soon be only a memory. We will turn our prisons into factories and our jails into storehouses and comcribs. Men will walk upright now, women will smile, and the children will laugh. Hell will be forever for rent.

The law tells me how crooked I am. Grace comes along and straightens me out.

I pity anyone who can't laugh. There must be something wrong with their religion or their lives. The devil can't laugh.

Riches have never yet given anybody either peace or rest.

God Almighty never intended that the devil should triumph over the Church. He never intended that the saloons should walk rough-shod over Christianity.

I am a temperance Republican down to my toes.
