"If we take into consideration all the influences indicated in the above rapid sketch,
we are bound to recognize that all of them, separately and combined together,

acts in the direction of raising the intellectual and moral faculties, of lifting raw humans to a higher conception of life and its duties,
of rendering them better, more human creatures than they were .
