| I would not attack the faith of a heathen without being sure I had a better one to put in its place. |
| If it were admitted that the great object is to read and enjoy a language, and the stress of the teaching were placed on the few things absolutely essential to this result, all might in their own way arrive there, and rejoice in its flowers. |
