In no passage of the holy canonical books there can be found either divine precept or permission to take away our own life, whether for the sake of entering on the enjoyment of immortality, or of shunning, or ridding ourselves of anything whatever. Nay, the law, rightly interpreted, even prohibits suicide, where it says, 'Thou shalt not kill.' This is proved especially by the omission of the words "thy neighbor," which are inserted when false witness is forbidden.

One never errs more safely than when one errs by too much loving the truth.

He who has God has everything; he who has everything but God has nothing.

Really great things, when discussed by little men, can usually make such men grow big.

Without God, we cannot. Without us, God will not.
