All Natural Results Are Spontaneous. The Diamond

Mercy Among The Virtues Is Like The Moon Among The Stars ... It Is The Light That Hovers Above The Judgment Seat.

Patriotism! It Is Used To Define So Many Diversities, To Justify So Many Wrongs, To Compass So Many Ends, That Its Life Is Killed Out; It Becomes A Dead Word In The Vocabulary-a Blank Counter, To Be Moved To Any Part Of The Game; And That Flag Which, Streaming From The Mast-head Of Our Ship Of State, Striped With Martyr-blood, And Glistening With The Stars Of Lofty Promise, Should Always Indicate Our Worldwide Mission, And The Glorious Destinies That We Carry Forward, Is Bandied About In Every Selfish Skirmish, And Held Up As The Symbol Of Every Political Privateer.

Glorify A Lie, Legalize A Lie, Arm And Equip A Lie, Consecrate A Lie With Solemn Forms And Awful Penalties, And After All It Is Nothing But A Lie. It Rots A Land And Corrupts A People Like Any Other Lie, And By And By The White Light Of God's Truth Shines Clear Through It, And Shows It To Be A Lie.
