• But if they did really refer to some kind of a "personal relationship," it would in effect be a case of channeling.

• The modern Gamaliel should teach ethics. Ethics is the science of human duty. Arithmetic tells man how to count his money; ethics how he should acquire it, whether by honesty or fraud.

This ethics is not Christianity, it is not even religion; but it is the sister of religion, because the path of duty is in full harmony, as to quality and direction, with the path of God.

• Civilization, that great fraud of our times, has promised man that by complicating his existence it would multiply his pleasures. ...
