“ He is a part of the eternal whole. There never was a time when he was not; a time will never come when he will not exist.
46. And now we look; the men who now are slaves were tyrants once; the men who now are tyrants have been slaves. ”

“ And men are sick, and halt, and lame, and blind because they once transgressed the laws of perfect life, and every law of God must be fulfilled.
49. Man may escape the punishment that seems but due for his mis-doings in this life ”

“ The law of all eternities is known to master minds:
34. Whatever men do unto other men the judge and executioner will do to them.
35. We do not note the execution of this law among the sons of men.
36. We note the weak dishonoured, trampled on and slain by those men call the strong.
37. We note that men with woodlike heads are seated in the chairs of state;
38. Are kings and judges, senators and priests, while men with giant intellects are scavengers about the streets. ”

“ What can be done to help them in their sore distress?
5. And Jesus said, A worthy plea. You men of Galilee, take heed. We may not bring again to live these men, but we can succour those who looked to them for daily bread.
6. You stewards of the wealth of God, an opportunity has come; unlock your vaults; bring forth your hoarded gold; bestow it with a lavish hand.
7. This wealth was laid aside for just times as these ”

“ They are undying parts of the eternal whole that come and go, lo, many times into the air of earth and of the great beyond, just to unfold the God-like self.
30. A cause may be a part of one brief life; results may not be noted till another life. ”

“ We note that women with a moiety of common sense, and not a whit of any other kind, are painted up and dressed as queens,
40. Becoming ladies of the courts of puppet kings, because they have the form of something beautiful; while God's own daughters are their slaves, or serve as common labourers in the field. ”
