IT is never right to deny rights. AMS August 4, 1898, page 469.1
THE human race cannot legislate itself above itself. AMS August 4, 1898, page 469.2
TO DENY the rights of one individual, is to deny the rights of all. AMS August 4, 1898, page 469.3

THE worst form of dependence—the farthest from true independence—is to be dependent on sin for your enjoyment. AMS August 4, 1898, page 469.5
LET government guard the interests of the individual, and the interests of the masses will take care of themselves. AMS August 4, 1898, page 469.6
THE trouble with legislation as a lifting force, is that it has to use the earth as a fulcrum; consequently it can elevate nothing on the earth. AMS August 4, 1898, page 469.7
THERE is no more need of human legislation to enforce the law of God than there was for Uzzah of old to put forth his hand to steady the ark of God, for which he was immediately struck dead. AMS August 4, 1898, page 469.8
THE amazing unselfishness of God is revealed in the words spoken by him to sinful man—“Receive ye the Holy Ghost.” AMS August 4, 1898, page 469.9
IN ancient times men used to worship gold when it was made into molten or a graven image. To-day they have so far degenerated that they worship it in the crude state in which it is taken from the earth. AMS August 4, 1898, page 469.10
THE conscience of but a single individual may have all the authority and power of Omnipotence behind it. AMS August 4, 1898, page 469.11
“THE state conscience” is one of many names by which despotish [sic.] seeks to hide his identity from the public. AMS August 4, 1898, page 469.12
NO MAN was ever able to “kill time,” but in trying to do so, a good many men have succeeded in killing themselves. AMS August 4, 1898, page 469.13
THE person who goes out of the pathway of God’s law to gain time, is quite apt to lose eternity as the result. AMS August 4, 1898, page 469.14
