“As to the question whether this modification is opportune, the fact must not be lost sight of that the Berlin Conference never intended to fix unalterably the economic system of the Free State, which, as was already then foreseen, would undergo radical modifications under the influence of progress, nor of establishing for an indefinite period regulations which may hinder, check, and even arrest its development. Provision was wisely made for the probability of future changes, which would require a certain latitude in economic matters in order to secure their easy realization... The moment has now come when the marvellous progress made by the infant State is creating fresh needs, when it would be only in accordance with wisdom and foresight to revise an economic system primarily adapted to a creative and transitional period. Can we blame the infant State for a progress which, in its rapidity, has surpassed the most optimistic forecasts? Can we hinder and arrest this progress in refusing her the means necessary for her development? Can we condemn the Sovereign who has already made such great sacrifices to support for an indefinite period a burden which daily becomes heavier, and at the same time impose upon him new and heavy expenses necessitated by the suppression of the slave-trade? We are convinced that there will be but one answer to these questions.”

“O' God, You see openly through, what hearts and minds, desire secretly, make good, and settle all complaints. You know the ins and outs of whatever is out and kept undisclosed and the vital completion of all the desires. O' God, You know I neither give any hope or expression or reply to others nor use such words that may take others, in a wrong context, and do hope for nothing. It can cause the hardest pain to them. O' God, give me the courage to speak clearly, and openly with my dignity of the Self.”

“O God, they do not know me, and I do not know them; show me the right way to decide; show them the proper way to reach me; O God, give me wisdom, courage, and fairness to accept or reject; O God, let me disappear from their sight if they are just making me a fool and enjoying that. O God, keep me away from hurting others' feelings if they are fair, honest, and want honestly to be a part of my life; O God, help me not to make mistakes again; keep away from them if they are bogus in my way; if they are sincere, give and show them the right way; Amen”

“A Prayer --- O God, they do not know me, and I do not know them; show me the right way to decide; show them the proper way to reach me. O God, give me wisdom, courage, and fairness to accept or reject wrong ones. O God, let me disappear from their sight if they are just making me a fool and enjoying that. O God, keep me away from hurting others' feelings if they are fair and honest and want to be a part of my life honestly. O God, help me not to make mistakes again; keep away from them; if they are bogus in my way, if they are sincere, give and show them the right way.”
