Victoria C. Woodhull: “No people can create government because they cannot create power.”

Are not their minds expanded to the comprehension of the great principles of governmental justice?

As the beams reflected from the mountain top are of the sun, and not the mountains, so are these spiritual rays of the spiritual sun, and not of the individual reflecting them, or through whom they may chance to shine.

If they still live as spirits, if they have had better opportunities of obtaining wisdom and knowledge pertaining to earth-life than we—can this world avail itself of their assistance to establish on earth the government of heaven?
