As she passed along the way,
But it spread the morning glory
Over the livelong day.

By example and not by precept. By living, not by preaching. By doing,
not by professing. By living the life, not by dogmatizing as to how it
should be lived. There is no contagion equal to the contagion of life.
Whatever we sow, that shall we also reap, and each thing sown produces
of its kind. We can kill not only by doing another bodily injury
directly, but we can and we do kill by every antagonistic thought. Not
only do we thus kill, but while we kill we suicide. Many a man has been
made sick by having the ill thoughts of a number of people centered upon
him; some have been actually killed. Put hatred into the world and we
make it a literal hell. Put love into the world and heaven with all its
beauties and glories becomes a reality.

Not to love is not to live, or it is to live a living death. The life
that goes out in love to all is the life that is full, and rich, and
continually expanding in beauty and in power. Such is the life that
becomes ever more inclusive, and hence larger in its scope and
influence.

Give us men!
Strong and stalwart ones:
Men whom highest hope inspires,
Men whom purest honour fires,
