Take Hope From The Heart Of Man,

You Know The Ark Of Israel And The Calf Of Belial Were Both Made Of Gold. Religion Has Never Yet Changed The Metal Of Her One Adoration.

The Loss Of Our Illusions Is The Only Loss From Which We Never Recover.

The Christian Religion, Outwardly And Even In Intention Humble, Does, Without Meaning It, Teach Man To Regard Himself As The Most Important Of All Created Things. Man Surveys The Starry Heavens And Hears With His Ears Of The Plurality Of Worlds; Yet His Religion Bids Him Believe That His Alone Out Of These Innumerable Spheres Is The Object Of His Master's Love And Sacrifice.

No Great Talker Ever Did Any Great Thing Yet, In This World.

Fame Nowadays Is Little Else But Notoriety.
