Biographies are but the clothes and buttons of the man. The biography of the man himself cannot be written.

It has taken a weary long time to persuade American Presbyterians to give up infant damnation and try to bear it the best they can.

They all laid their heads together like as many lawyers when they are gettin' ready to prove that a man's heirs ain't got any right to his property.

Man has been here 32,000 years. That it took a hundred million years to prepare the world for him is proof that that is what it was done for. I suppose it is, I dunno. If The Eiffel Tower were now to represent the world's age, the skin of paint on the pinnacle knob at its summit would represent man's share of that age; and anybody would perceive that the skin was what the tower was built for. I reckon they would, I dunno.

If God had meant for us to be naked, we'd have been born that way.
