“We will never have real safety and security for wage earners unless we provide for safety and security for the wage payers and wage savers.”
William J. H. Boetcker
“I did not know the woman soul, that crowning gift of Providence to man, which, if we do not ourselves degrade it, will set an edge to all that is good in us. I did not know how the love of a woman will tinge a man's whole life and every action with unselfishness. I did not know how easy it is to be noble when some one else takes it for granted that one will be so; or how wide and interesting life becomes when viewed by four eyes instead of two.”
Arthur Conan Doyle Sr.
“The scientific mind does not so much provide the right answers as ask the right questions.”

“GOD is the ever-active providence, by whose power systems after systems are being evolved out of chaos, made to run for a time and again destroyed.”
Swami Vivekananda
“The truth is this: The march of Providence is so slow and our desires so impatient; the work of progress is so immense and our means of aiding it so feeble; the life of humanity is so long, that of the individual so brief, that we often see only the ebb of the advancing wave and are thus discouraged. It is history that teaches us to hope.”
Robert E. Lee
“Order your soul; reduce your wants; live in charity; associate in Christian community; obey the laws; trust in Providence.”

“Anthropology provides a scientific basis for dealing with the crucial dilemma of the world today: how can peoples of different appearance... and dissimilar ways of life get along peaceably together?”
