Страница 894 - Of all the dispositions and habits which lead to political prosperity, religion and morality are indispensable supports.

Страница 314 - Must a government of necessity be too strong for the liberties of its own people, or too weak to maintain its own existence...
Страница 894 - Observe good faith and justice towards all nations; cultivate peace and harmony with all. Religion and morality enjoin this conduct: and can it be that good policy does not equally enjoin it?

Страница 894 - Promote, then, as an object of primary importance, institutions for the general diffusion of knowledge. In proportion as the structure of a government gives force to public opinion, it is essential that public opinion should be enlightened.
Страница 720 - No men living are more worthy to be trusted than those who toil up from poverty — none less inclined to take or touch aught which they have not honestly earned. Let them beware of surrendering a political power which they already possess, and which, if surrendered, will surely be used to close the door of advancement against such as they, and to fix new disabilities and burdens npon them, till all of liberty shall be los't.
