After all, we believe all the same important things; and as to others, what does it matter, provided we all do our best in the way that seems right to us?" But this was too liberal for John. He had been brought up in too strait a sect to subscribe to such an opinion as this. "I do think it makes a difference, Walter," he said slowly. "I don't," Walter said. "It's just a matter of bringing up.
Thus, so far as the eye of those who prognosticate from existing circumstances could see, there was every prospect of comfort and happiness in the dawning future, for this passive little bundle of humanity lying in state in her neatly furnished basket-cradle; whether it pleased his reverence Father Time, or not, to subscribe thus obligingly to the wishes of a concerned few, is a secret which my pen can best tell.
Well, what's so funny about that?" "I'm not laughing." "Yes, you were. Anyhow, Flaten wants to edit a paper. And since Lind publishes a kennel journal, Flaten wants to publish a human journal, he says." "A human journal?" "Yes.

Burke, who was a leading man, and the most forward in asking questions, put this to them, whether there was any hope of his Majesty's recovering, they did not scruple to say that they had more reason to hope it than not.

This, sir, is what I long for." The officer replied, that both as a man and a Briton, he must certainly subscribe to this as a happy state of things. "Happy!" quoth Marion; "yes, happy indeed! and I had rather fight for such blessings for my country, and feed on roots, than keep aloof, though wallowing in all the luxuries of Solomon.

The College of William and Mary was an establishment purely of the Church of England; the Visitors were required to be all of that Church; the Professors to subscribe its Thirty-nine Articles; its Students to learn its Catechism; and one of its fundamental objects was declared to be, to raise up Ministers for that Church.
