Mankind is never stationary in its improvement.
It is natural for mankind to proceed –
Individuals the life
may wreck by their misdemeanours;
nations may be obliterated by the
faults inherent in their constitutions;
but mankind must tower over chance and remain unchecked in its
career. Its victories are the gains;
its defeats are not its losses – they
are still the The obstacles
it meets in its progressive march serve
only to make it efforts give impart
an nobleness to its efforts, and brilliancy to
its triumphs
The annals of mankind bear witness to
this assertion. In different centuries we have
seen nations grapple either as truth
or illusions. Religious philosophy, political
schemes were the objects which have collateraly or separately
occupied engaged in their own behalf,
the energies of the mind. There never would
an end to pursuit and Mankind had always
something did never want some object of pursuit: and as soon
as the object point was given: there was never lack
of enthusiasm and forces to carry it through
