All of the great patriots now engaged in edging and squirming their way toward the Presidency of the Republic run true to form.

Man is the only Patriot. He sets himself apart in his own country, under his own flag, and sneers at the other nations, and keeps multitudinous uniformed assassins on hand at heavy expense to grab slices of other people's countries, and keep them from grabbing slices of his.

Love is the only bow on Life's dark cloud. It is the Morning and the Evening Star. It shines upon the cradle of the babe, and sheds its radiance on the quiet tomb.

It was the first to dream of immortality. It fills the world with melody, for Music is the voice of Love.
