Quotes from James Oppenheim

A faith like Lincoln's would transform the world!

The foolish man seeks happiness in the distance, the wise grows it under his feet.

Free men set themselves free.

Would you end war? Create great Peace.

To be a god First I must be a god-maker: We are what we create.

The fool is looking for happiness far away. The wise man makes it grow under his feet.

Man's the bad child of the universe

They can only set free men free... And there is no need of that: Free men set themselves free.

We age inevitably: The old joys fade and are gone: And at last comes equanimity and the flame burning clear.

A faith like Lincoln's would transform the world!
