replies, "Learn of Me, and ye shall find Rest." Contrast the world's word
"Weariness" with Christ's word "Rest." No other teacher since the world

philosopher, and you shall find Restlessness. Learn of Me, says Christ,
and ye shall find Rest. Natural Law, p. 280.
August 4th. Men will have to give up the experiment of attempting to live
in half an Environment. Half an Environment will give but half a Life.
. . . He whose correspondences are with this world alone has only a
thousandth part, a fraction, the mere rim and shade of an Environment,
and only the fraction of a Life. How long will it take Science to believe

fragment of the universe we do not see? Natural Law, p. 282.
August 5th. The Life of the senses, high and low, may perfect itself in
Nature. Even the Life of thought may find a large complement in

religious Life, can only perfect themselves in God. Natural Law, p. 283.
August 6th. To make the influence of Environment stop with the natural
world is to doom the spiritual nature to death.
