Стр. 210 - Is it not the chief disgrace in the world not to be an unit, not to be reckoned one character — not to yield that peculiar fruit which each man was created to bear, but to be reckoned in the gross, in the hundred, or...
Стр. 206 - The preamble of thought, the transition through which it passes from the unconscious to the conscious, is action. Only so much do I know, as I have lived.
Стр. 29 - The free communication of thoughts and opinions is one of the invaluable rights of man; and every citizen may freely speak, write, and print on any subject, being responsible for the abuse of that liberty.

Стр. 210 - ... if the single man plant himself indomitably on his instincts, and there abide, the huge world will come round to him.
Стр. 210 - Young men of the fairest promise, who begin life upon our shores, inflated by the mountain winds, shined upon by all the stars of God, find the earth below not in unison with these — but are hindered from action by the disgust which the principles on which business is managed inspire, and turn drudges, or die of disgust — some of them suicides.
Стр. 91 - That the selectmen of every town in the several precincts and quarters where they dwell, shall have a vigilant eye over their brethren and neighbors, to see, first, that none of them shall suffer so much barbarism in any of their families, as not to endeavor to teach by themselves or others, their children and apprentices so much learning, as may enable them perfectly to read the English tongue...
