Stran 217 - Monsieur, tell those who sent you that we are here by the will of the People, and that nothing but the force of bayonets...
Stran 302 - GOD ; and he is mighty and wise. His is the kingdom of heaven and earth; he giveth life, and he putteth to death ; and he is almighty. He is the first, and the last; the manifest, and the hidden : and lie knoweth all things.
Stran 137 - Thou hast said much here of Paradise Lost, but what hast thou to say of Paradise Found?
Stran 112 - The social problem of the future we considered to be, how to unite the greatest individual liberty of action, with a common ownership in the raw material of the globe, and an equal participation of all in the benefits of combined labour.
