More from Charles Sumner
The most distant are not without a present influence on our daily lives.
Nor should we be too impatient to witness the fulfilment of our aspirations.
Still further: every ship-of-war that floats costs more than a well-endowed college.
Confessing the Fatherhood of God, and the consequent Brotherhood of Man, we find a divine standard of unquestionable accuracy.
