Excerpt from The Ten Laws: A Foundation for Human Society Intent on manna still, and mortal ends, Sees it not, neither hears its thundered lore. God is always speaking to us, in language which can easily be understood. He is speaking out Of our own hearts, Out Of the structure of society, even out of the tissues and organs of the physical body, and making the air we breathe a vocal utterance of his eternal mind and will. A Greek poet has finely said that laws are neither of to-day nor yesterday, but live for ever, since immemorial time. These ten laws are an abstract and summary of human conduct and righteousness. Whoso dashes himself against them is dashed to pieces. It is idle to talk Of their passing away. When they pass away, the heavens and the earth will pass away. Only as they are revered, observed, and obeyed, can there be social order, national stability, domestic happiness, or individual peace and prosperity.
