My Constitution Was Destroyed Long

As Long As The World Shall Last There Will Be Wrongs, And If No Man Objected And No Man Rebelled, Those Wrongs Would Last Forever.

If There Is To Be Any Permanent Improvement In Man And Any Better Social Order, It Must Come Mainly From The Education And Humanizing Of Man.

People In This World Are Not Often Logical.

Every One Knows That The Heavenly Bodies Move In Certain Paths In Relation To Each Other With Seeming Consistency And Regularity Which We Call [physical] Law. ... No One Attributes Freewill Or Motive To The Material World. Is The Conduct Of Man Or The Other Animals Any More Subject To Whim Or Choice Than The Action Of The Planets? ... We Know That Man's Every Act Is Induced By Motives That Led Or Urged Him Here Or There; That The Sequence Of Cause And Effect Runs Through The Whole Universe, And Is Nowhere More Compelling Than With Man.

It Is Indeed Strange That With All The Knowledge We Have Gained In The Past Hundred Years We Preserve And Practice The Methods Of An Ancient And Barbarous World In Our Dealing With Crime. So Long As This Is Observed And Exercised There Can Be No Change Except To Heap More Cruelties And More Wretchedness Upon Those Who Are The Victims Of Our Foolish System.
