Zealous men are ever displaying to you the strength of their belief, while judicious men are showing you the grounds of it.
Sentiment: POSITIVE
Great men are they who see that spiritual is stronger than any material force - that thoughts rule the world.
I beg you be persuaded that no one would be more zealous than myself to establish effectual barriers against the horrors of spiritual tyranny, and every species of religious persecution.
It is easy enough to praise men for the courage of their convictions. I wish I could teach the sad young of this mealy generation the courage of their confusions.
All the strength and force of man comes from his faith in things unseen. He who believes is strong; he who doubts is weak. Strong convictions precede great actions.
Such are the heights of wickedness to which men are driven by religion.
I have done no wrong but the zealots are trying to attack me because I am so critical of them.
The enemy of idealism is zealotry.
Zealots often carry the day.
Men use thought only as authority for their injustice, and employ speech only to conceal their thoughts.
Men become civilized, not in proportion to their willingness to believe, but in proportion to their readiness to doubt.
