Religion Is One's Opinion And Belief In Some Ethical Truth. To Be A Christian Is To Have The Religion Of Christ, And So To Be A Believer Of Mohammed Is To Be A Mohammedan But There Are So Many Religions That Every Man Seems To Be A Religion Unto Himself. No Two Persons Think Alike, Even If They Outwardly Profess The Same Faith, So We Have As Many Religions In Christianity As We Have Believers.

I Trust That You Will So Live Today As To Realize That You Are Masters Of Your Own Destiny, Masters Of Your Fate; If There Is Anything You Want In This World, It Is For You To Strike Out With Confidence And Faith In Self And Reach For It.

That We Suffer So Much Today Under Whatsoever Flag We Live Is Proof Positive That Constitutions And Laws, When Framed By The Early Advocates Of Human Liberty, Never Included And Were Never Intended For Us As A People. It Is Only A Question Of Sheer Accident That We Happen To Be Fellow Citizens Today With The Descendants Of Those Who, Through Their Advocacy, Laid The Foundation For Human Rights.

A People Without The Knowledge Of Their Past History, Origin And Culture Is Like A Tree Without Roots.
