We must seek the loving-kindness of God in all the breadth and open-air of common life.

How on the face of the earth could a man enjoy his religion, when he had been told by the Lord how to prepare for a day of famine, when, instead of doing so, he had fooled away that which would have sustained him and his family.

Man does find in Nature deliverance from himself, oblivion of his past, with peace and purity!

Lives are changed by a moment's listening to conscience, by a single and quiet inclination of the mind.

We breathe the free air, we have the best looking men and handsomest women, and if they envy our position, well they may, for they are a poor, narrow minded, pinch-backed race of man, who chain themselves down to the law of monogamy and live all their days under the dominion of one wife. They aught to be ashamed of such conduct, and the still fouler channel which flows from their practices.

Power and position often make a man trifle with the truth.

Jesus Christ tells us that a man cannot be wrong if he argues towards God from what he finds best in himself.
