, to assist the weak, to forget wrongs and remember benefits -- to love the
truth, to be sincere, to utter honest words, to love liberty, to wage
relentless war against slavery in all its forms, to love wife and child and
friend, to make a happy home, to love the beautiful; in art, in nature, to
cultivate the mind, to be familiar with the mighty thoughts that genius has
expressed, the noble deeds of all the world, to cultivate courage and
cheerfulness, to make others happy, to fill life with the splendor of
generous acts, the warmth of loving words, to discard error, to destroy
prejudice, to receive new truths with gladness, to cultivate hope, to see
the calm beyond the storm, the dawn beyond the night, to do the best that
can be done and then to be resigned -- this is the religion of reason, the
creed of science. This satisfies the brain and heart. |
