Evolution seems to close the heart to some of the plainest spiritual truths while it opens the mind to the wildest guesses advanced in the name of science.

No greater victory can be won by citizens or soldiers than to transform temporary foes into permanent friends.

Never be afraid to stand with the minority when the minority is right, for the minority which is right will one day be the majority.

You came to tell us that the great cities are in favour of the gold standard; we reply that the great cities rest upon our broad and fertile plains. Burn down your cities and leave our farms, and your cities will spring up again as if by magic. But destroy out farms and the grass will grow in the city...You shall not press down upon the brow of labour this crown of thorns. You shall not crucify mankind upon a cross of gold.

Most of the temptations that come to us to sell the soul come in connection with the getting of money.

If evolution wins, Christianity goes!

Eloquent speech is not from lip to ear, but rather from heart to heart.
