Rutherford, Samuel

Wilder, Thornton
A child is a beam of sunlight from the Infinite and Eternal, with possibilities of virtue and vice- but as yet unstained.
Abbott, Lyman
The planting of trees in the least self-centered of all that we can do. It is a purer act of faith than the procreation of children.
