unchangeable faith that it is beneath the dignity of men to resort to mutual slaughter.

an organization, he becomes an organization.

Restraint is the law of our being. For highest perfection is unattainable without highest
restraint.

religion.

forward to a nicer luncheon, but how am I to talk of God to the millions who have to go
without two meals a day? To them God can only appear as bread and butter.

If Jesus came to earth again, he would disown many things that are being done in the name
