Hold Firmly To Your Word.

God Cannot Be Compared To Anything. Note This.

In So Far As The Soul Is A Force Residing In The Body; It Has Therefore Been Said That The Properties Of The Soul Depend Of The Condition Of The Body.

The So-called Evils Are Evils Only In Relation To A Certain Thing, And That Which Is Evil In Relation To A Certain Existing Thing, Either Includes The Non-existence Of That Thing Or The Non-existence Of Some Of Its Good Conditions.

Even The Existence Of This Corporeal Element, Low As It In Reality Is, Because It Is The Source Of Death And All Evils, Is Likewise Good For The Permanence Of The Universe And The Continuation Of The Order Of Things, So That One Thing Departs And The Other Succeeds.

Inspire Me With Love For My Art And For Thy Creatures. In The Sufferer Let Me See Only The Human Being.
