One of the most melancholy consequences of this habit of deferring to other nations, and to other systems, is the fact that it causes us to undervalue the high blessings we so peculiarly enjoy; to render us ungrateful towards God, and to make us unjust to our fellow men, by throwing obstacles in their progress towards liberty.

Throwing them all aside, you will run to her. View quote

Some might justifiably call it "meddling." I've often done this- just about everywhere in the company. View quote

We can't all strike very big blows, and even the little ones count for something. View quote

Reading the Bible is the fast track to atheism. Reading the Bible means starting at "In the beginning..." and throwing it down with disgust at "... the grace of the lord Jesus be with all. Amen."
