• Teach him a certain refinement in sorting out and selecting his arguments, with an affection for relevance and so for brevity.

  5 Copy quote

• Man was destined for society. His morality therefore was to be formed to this object. He was endowed with a sense of right and wrong merely relative to this. This sense is as much a part of his nature as the sense of hearing, seeing, feeling; it is the true foundation of morality... The moral sense, or conscience, is as much a part of man as his leg or arm. It is given to all human beings in a stronger or weaker degree, as force of members is given them in a greater or less degree. It may be strengthened by exercise, as may any particular limb of the body.

And he will say, 'O wise and prudent, I am welcoming them because not one of them has ever judged himself worthy.

  Lookin' for a friend
  Where can you turn
  Whisper the words of a prayer and you'll find Him there

  Jesus - He heals your secret scars
  All the love you're looking for is Jesus
  The friend of a wounded heart

• We must pay attention to the millions of children of this generation who are caught up in armed conflicts. How can we protect them from the worst consequences of war? And when hostilities cease, how can we take the war out of them? By eliminating landmines, controlling the sale of small arms, raising the age of recruitment ... are all essential measures. By reuniting children with their families and providing programs of physical and psychological rehabilitation.
