“Begging would have been the best option if God had given talents to only a selected few. Fortunately, He gave us all our compactible gifts respectively, so it is an offence to be a chronic beggar.”
“There are two aspects," Alexey Alexandrovitch resumed: "those who take part and those

“Here the whole world (stars, water, air,
And field, and forest, as they were
Reflected in a single mind)

To say that the human soul, angels, god, are immaterial, is to say they are nothings, or that there is no god, no angels, no soul. I cannot reason otherwise: but I believe I am supported in my creed of materialism by Locke, Tracy, and Stewart.
