"Right gladly would He free them from their misery, but He knows only one way: He will teach them to be like himself, meek and lowly, bearing with gladness the yoke of His Father's will. This in the one, the only right, the only possible way of freeing them from their sin, the cause of their unrest."

The unknown life of the maker is evanescent in its brevity, but the work of his or her hands and heart remains.”
