"God wept; but that mattered little to an unbelieving age; what
mattered most was that the world wept and still is weeping and blind
with tears and blood. For there began to rise in America in 1876 a new
capitalism and a new enslavement of labor." --W. E. B. Du Bois
As the preacher said, "There is nothing new under the sun."

"Less than any man have I excuse for prejudice; and I feel for all
creeds the warm sympathy of one who has come to learn that even the
trust in reason is a precarious faith, and that we are all fragments
of darkness groping for the sun. I know no more about the ultimates
than the simplest urchin in the streets." -- Will Durant
