The bearded man and the lad in his teens,
Carpenters, coal-passers—all.”

“Philosophic argument, especially that drawn from the vastness of the universe, in comparison with the apparent insignificance of this globe, has sometimes shaken my reason for the faith that is in me; but my heart has always assured and reassured me that the gospel of Jesus Christ must be Divine Reality.

—Daniel Webster (1782–1852)
