עמוד 71 - The Holy Supper is kept, indeed, In whatso we share with another's need; Not what we give, but what we share, ! For the gift without the giver is bare; Who gives himself with his alms feeds three, Himself, his hungering neighbor, and me.

עמוד 134 - Sometimes these states suggest the intellectual aura or voluminous mentation of epilepsy, and the day-dreamer goes about dazed like a somnambulist, and should be admitted to be legally irresponsible, because every act proves an alibi for attention. This may be the germ of some ancillary personality and lead to a double housekeeping of consciousness, or it may be incipient lunacy and suggest Lamb's remark to Coleridge, that no one knows the grandeur of fancy till he has been crazy. It may issue in...
עמוד 37 - Asylums and other Institutions for the relief of the sick, the halt, the blind, the fatherless and the indigent, are not only packed to the utmost, but are obliged to turn away applicants for admission who are worthy and deserving of consideration and of help, merely because of lack of room. * * * Our burdens are being constantly increased by the thousands who come from Europe every year to settle in our midst. * * * " And speaking further of the care of their poor in the City of New York, it is...
עמוד 114 - The compensation of an attorney or counsellor for his services, is governed by agreement, express or implied, which is not restrained by law.
