Whoever intercepts knowledge, therefore, on its passage to a human soul; whoever strikes down the hand that is outstretched to grasp it, is guilty of one of the most heinous of offences.
But the impious hand of man divorces these twin capacities, wherever it denies knowledge.
Of all the states in this Union, not one has on the whole such various and abundant resources for manufacturing as our own Virginia, both East and West.
The wickedest white man, in a company of slaves, bears a charmed life.
