For The Moment And For Some Time

My Duty Is Clear And At All Costs Will Be Done.

In This Work I Have Received The Opposition Of A Number Of Men Who Only Advocate The Unobtainable Because The Immediately Possible Is Beyond Their Moral Courage, Administrative Ability, And Their Political Prescience.

I Am Only Doing Now What I Have Ever Done; And Ever Will Continue To Do - That Is Adapting Past Experience To Present Reform In The Light Of High Ideals And Future Objects.
