“There is in souls a sympathy with sounds: And as the mind is pitch'd the ear is pleased With melting airs, or martial, brisk or grave; Some chord in unison with what we hear Is touch'd within us, and the heart replies.”
“An atmosphere of sympathetic influence encircles every human being; and the man or woman who feels strongly, healthily and justly, on the great interests of humanity, is a constant benefactor to the human race.”
“Lidelse og smerte følger altid en dyb erkendelse og et stort hjerte. Jeg tror at virkelig store personligheder altid må føle en stor sorg over lidelserne her i verden.”
