"Quote of the Day"

From the memoirs of Jonathan Edwards, Chapter II:

"Religion strengthens the powers of man; it never enfeebles them. It at once cuts off those guilty pleasures, and those unworthy pursuits, which not merely impeded progress of the understanding, but in many cases are absolutely fatal to its energies; and it forms those mental habits, as well as produces that outwards propriety of conduct, which are most favourable to the cultivation of man's noblest faculties."
