Sida 6 - Go ye into the whole world and preach the gospel to every creature. He that believeth and is baptized shall be saved. But he that believeth not shall be condemned.
Sida 9 - ... be kept up by any state, in time of peace, except such number only, as in the judgment of the united states...

Sida 10 - The social problem of the future we considered to be, how to unite the greatest individual liberty of action, with a common ownership in the raw material of the globe, and an equal participation of all in the benefits of combined labour.
Sida 11 - Whatever power such a being may have over me, there is one thing which he shall not do : he shall not compel me to worship him.

Sida 10 - If, therefore, we speak of the Mind as a series of feelings, we are obliged to complete the statement by calling it a series of feelings which is aware of itself as past and future : and we are reduced to the alternative of believing that the Mind, or Ego, is something different from any series of feelings, or possibilities of them, or of accepting the paradox, that something which ex hypothesi is but a series of feelings, can be aware of itself as a series.
Sida 1 - It is impossible that the allied powers should extend their political system to any portion of either continent, without endangering our peace and happiness ; nor can any one believe that our southern brethren, if left to themselves, would adopt it of their own accord.
