Life and religion are one, or neither is any thing.

God is the God of the animals in a far lovelier way, I suspect, than many of us dare to think, but he will not be the God of a man by making a good beast of him.

I believe in fate, never in chance.

But there is no veil like light--no adamantine armor against hurt like the truth.

A man is as free as he chooses to make himself, never an atom freer.

As no scripture is of private interpretation, so is there no feeling in a human heart which exists in that heart alone - which is not, in some form or degree, in every human heart.

A man's real belief is that which he lives by. What a man believes is the thing he does, not the thing he thinks.
