There's Nothing Left . . . But

While Men Inhabiting Different Parts Of This Vast Continent Cannot Be Expected To Hold The Same Opinions, They Can Unite In A Common Objective And Sustain Common Principles.

In Expressing Briefly My Views Upon An Important Subject Which Has Recently Agitated The Nation..., I Fervently Hope That The Question Is At Rest And That No Sectional Or Ambitious Or Fanatical Excitement May Again Threaten The Durability Of Our Institutions.

Frequently The More Trifling The Subject, The More Animated And Protracted The Discussion.

I Cannot Find Any Authority In The Constitution For Public Charity.

If Your Past Is Limited, Your Future Is Boundless.
