In his reply, the expositor in his turn recognises the success of his original gesture as a speculative demonstration, and waives the question of the suitability of its mode of suggestiveness with an 'anyhow. But he is now in a position to repeat the original proposition with the aid of a demonstrative gesture robbed of any suggestiveness, suitable or unsuitable, by saying, 'It is commodious.
Christ was repeating what David made a law in Israel, when He said: 'He that receiveth a prophet in the name of a prophet shall receive a prophet's reward. Therein He recognises the identity in spiritual stature and motive for service, of the prophet and of his dumb helper, and assures us that those who, in widely different ways but under the guidance of the same spirit and motives, have contributed their respective shares to the one triumphant result shall be associated and equalised in the immortal reward.
'It seemed distant as El Dorado, and as desirable. Mallinson responded with the gentle smile with which a man recognises and pities a childishness he has himself outgrown. Drake ordered port, having great faith in its qualities, as inducive of a cat-like content and consequent good-fellowship.
Neither Briton nor American can do full justice to the other unless each recognises that the other is fashioned of a somewhat different clay. The strong reasons, material and otherwise, why Great Britain and the United States should be friends need not be enumerated here.

Civilisation must be judged and prized, not by the amount of power it has developed, but by how much it has evolved and given expression to, by its laws and institutions, the love of humanity. The first question and the last which it has to answer is, Whether and how far it recognises man more as a spirit than a machine?
America also recognises a criminal class at the top of the social scale. In both, for various reasons, it may be difficult for the criminals to be convicted; but in America the upper class of criminals is recognised. In both America and England, of course, it exists.
And yet he hears that odious men, whom he recognises only as tyrants, are filling the jails through the country with all his dearest friends.
