I Acknowledge Myself A Unitarian

Let Your Observations And Comparisons Produce In Your Mind An Abhorrence Of Domination And Power, The Parent Of Slavery, Ignorance, And Barbarism, Which Places Man Upon A Level With His Fellow Tenants Of The Woods.

The Heart Is Long, Very Long In Receiving The Convictions That Is Forced Upon It By Reason... Affection Still Lingers In The Bosom, Even After Esteem Has Taken Its Flight.

I Feel Anxious For The Fate Of Our Monarchy, Or Democracy, Or Whatever Is To Take Place. I Soon Get Lost In A Labyrinth Of Perplexities; But, Whatever Occurs, May Justice And Righteousness Be The Stability Of Our Times, And Order Arise Out Of Confusion. Great Difficulties May Be Surmounted By Patience And Perseverance.

What Is The History Of Mighty Kingdoms And Nations, But A Detail Of The Ravages And Cruelties Of The Powerful Over The Weak?

These Are Times In Which A Genius Would Wish To Live. It Is Not In The Still Calm Of Life, Or The Repose Of A Pacific Station, That Great Characters Are Formed.
