Side 436 - I suppose you mean the greatest love, and the greatest usefulness, and the most open communication, and the noblest sufferings, and the most exemplary faithfulness, and the severest truth, and the heartiest counsel, and the greatest union of minds, of which brave men and -women are capable.
Side 381 - To Kant his obligations are infinite, not so much from what Kant has taught him in the form of doctrine, as from the discipline Kant has taught him to go through.
