Power Is Of An Encroaching Nature.

If The People Are To Be Our Governors, They Must Arm Themselves With Knowledge.

Whilst We Assert For Ourselves A Freedom To Embrace, To Profess And Observe The Religion Which We Believe To Be Of Divine Origin, We Cannot Deny Equal Freedom To Those Whose Minds Have Not Yet Yielded To The Evidence Which Has Convinced Us.
