Unlike all other founders of a religious faith, Christ had no selfishness, no desire of dominance; and His system, unlike all other systems of worship, was bloodless, boundlessly beneficent, and - most marvelous of all - went to break all bonds of body and soul, and to cast down every temporal and every spiritual tyranny.
William Howitt
