“Christianity excludes malignity, subdues selfishness, regulates the passions, subordinates the appetites, quickens the intellect, exalts the affections. It promotes industry, honesty, truth, purity, kindness. It humbles the proud, exalts the lowly, upholds law, favors liberty, is essential to it, and would unite men in one great brotherhood. It is the breath of life to social and civil well-being here, and spreads the azure of that heaven into whose unfathomed depths the eye if faith loves to look.” IfsMenWellsLooksEyeLawPassionHeavenSocialLibertyChristianityKindnessHonestyIndustryProudEssentialsBreathsDepthAffectionSpreadIntellectFavorsWell BeingSelfishnessPurityAppetiteBrotherhoodSubordinatesTruth HonestyAzureFaith In Love Author:Mark Hopkins
