The cry of the soul is for freedom. It longs for liberty, from the date of its first conscious moments.
J. G. HollandA man does not necessarily sin who does that which our reason and our conscience condemn.
J. G. HollandLife is before you,- not earthly life alone, but life- a thread running interminably through the warp of eternity.
J. G. HollandIn the homes of America are born the children of America; and from them go out into American life, American men and women. They go out with the stamp of these homes upon them; and only as these homes are what they should be, will they be what they should be.

J. G. HollandThere is a contemptibly quiet path for all those who are afraid of the blows and clamor of opposing forces. There is no honorable fighting for a man who is not ready to forget that he has a head to be battered and a name to be bespattered. Truth wants no champion who is not as ready to be struck as to strike for her.
