Sayfa 187 - ... law can do is to announce the principle that "a man is presumed to intend the consequences of his own voluntary act." It is the boast of the human law that it treats all men alike; it is the glory of the divine law that it sees in all men differences. This difference is a necessary one. It is because "man looketh upon the outward appearance, but God looketh upon the heart.
Sayfa 149 - A nervous opium eating individual was hammering away at a piano. In the hall-like space, before the stage, were a hundred or more men and boys. Not a woman was to be seen in the rows of seats — only men smoking and chewing tobacco and boys eating peanuts.

In each room was an...
