The admission of the States of Wyoming and Idaho to the Union are events full of interest and congratulation, not only to the peop...le of those States now happily endowed with a full participation in our privileges and responsibilities, but to all our people. Another belt of States stretches from the Atlantic to the Pacific.LESSATTRIBUTION DETAIL »
The sacred obligation to the Union soldiers must not--will not be forgotten nor neglected.... But those who fought against the Nat...ion cannot and do not look to it for relief....

If I had not come to America, where I felt free to formulate tentatively insights at which I had empathically arrived, I would hav...e accomplished very little. I would never have begun to publish, to teach, to undertake research. Because if one does not find an assenting echo to one's ideas, if one is passed over, as I was in Vienna, then one cannot create. To create, after all, is to believe that what one says will count.LESSATTRIBUTION DETAIL »
