We Are Not Sure We Are Right

The State Is Competent To Assign Duties And Draw The Line Between Good And Evil Only In Its Immediate Sphere.

It Is They [men Of Science] Who Hold The Secret Of The Mysterious Property Of The Mind By Which Error Ministers To Truth, And Truth Slowly But Irrevocably Prevails. Theirs Is The Logic Of Discovery, The Demonstration Of The Advance Of Knowledge And The Development Of Ideas, Which As The Earthly Wants And Passions Of Men Remain Almost Unchanged, Are The Charter Of Progress, And The Vital Spark In History.

Political Differences Essentially Depend On Disagreement In Moral Principles.
