Love Is The Life Of The Soul.

I Am A Living Member Of The Great Family Of All Souls; And I Cannot Improve Or Suffer Myself, Without Diffusing Good Or Evil Around Me Through An Ever-enlarging Sphere. I Belong To This Family. I Am Bound To It By Vital Bonds.

I Call That Mind Free Which Jealously Guards Its Intellectual Rights And Powers, Which Calls No Man Master, Which Does Not Content Itself With A Passive Or Hereditary Faith, Which Opens Itself To Light Whencesoever It May Come, Which Receives New Truth As An Angel From Heaven.

It Is Far More Important To Me To Preserve An Unblemished Conscience Than To Compass Any Object However Great.

To Do God's Will As Fast As It Is Made Known To Us, To Inquire Hourly -- I Had Almost Said Each Moment -- What He Requires Of Us, And To Leave Ourselves, Our Friends, And Every Interest At His Control, With A Cheerful Trust That The Path Which He Marks Out Leads To Our Perfection And To Himself, -- This Is At Once Our Duty And Happiness; And Why Will We Not Walk In The Plain, Simple Way?.

The Fewer The Voices On The Side Of Truth, The More Distinct And Strong Must Be Your Own.
