Ide* It an Anchor
No one should ever forget that In
I this long chain from man upward,
ideas play the most Important part.
If there Is no hope in them, there is
no hope in anything. The idea Is an
anchor, a chain to the wind, a light in
the dark. It is something apparently
all our own, but which, reasoning for
ward, we deduce exists In a greater
state of power and grandeur In eter
nity.
