Religion is not a conclusion of the reason.
The highest qualities of character...must be earned.
The very essence of rationalism is that it assumes that the reason is the highest faculty in man and the lord of all the rest.
It is easy to condemn, it is better to pity.
Do not teach your children never to be angry; teach them how to be angry.
We often pray for purity, unselfishness, for the highest qualities of character, and forget that these things cannot be given, but must be earned.
