No Man Is Fit To Command Another

That Which The People Called Quakers Lay Down As A Main Fundamental In Religion Is This- That God, Through Christ, Hath Placed A Principle In Every Man, To Inform Him Of His Duty, And To Enable Him To Do It; And That Those That Live Up To This Principle Are The People Of God, And Those That Live In Disobedience To It, Are Not God's People, Whatever Name They May Bear, Or Profession They May Make Of Religion. This Is Their Ancient, First, And Standing Testimony: With This They Began, And This They Bore, And Do Bear To The World.

To Be Innocent Is To Be Not Guilty; But To Be Virtuous Is To Overcome Our Evil Inclinations.

Not To Be Provok'd Is Best: But If Mov'd, Never Correct Till The Fume Is Spent; For Every Stroke Our Fury Strikes, Is Sure To Hit Our Selves At Last.

Next To God, Thy Parents.

Do What Good Thou Canst Unknown, And Be Not Vain Of What Ought Rather To Be Felt Than Seen.
