Excerpt from The Power of Tolerance: And Other SpeechesTo deny the power of bigotry would be to deny the facts of history. The superior capacity Of concentration possessed by a narrow mind makes for strength. Mere persistence is one Of the most potent of agencies. SO the zealot has writ his name large and Often upon the pages Of the wonderful story of the world in which we live. His acts in many instances we of to day can regard only with abhorrence. NO savage chief has enforced decrees more bar barous than were some of the laws and customs of the kings of Israel. In the name of few, if any, religions have more crimes been com mitted than in that of our own.About the PublisherForgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.
