If religious books are not widely circulated among the masses in this
country, I do not know what is going to become of us as a nation. If
truth be not diffused, error will be; If God and His Word are not know
and received, the devil and his works will gain the ascendancy; If the
evangelical volume does not reach every hamlet, the pages of a corrupt
and licentious literature will; If the power of the Gospel is not felt
throughout the length and breadth of the land, anarchy and misrule,
degradation and misery, corruption and darkness will reign without
mitigation or end.
-- Daniel Webster
