Thus we may contemplate our own going away, or the departure of the dearest from our homes, and of the most powerful for good in human affairs, and in the faith of God's true promises may feel that no one is indispensable to our well-being or to the world's good.

These two acts, one of projection and the other of recall; these two forces, centrifugal and centripetal, are symbolized in the operations of addition and subtraction.
Thus, says Dr. Samuel Clarke, in his reply to Collins, “’Tis the self-moving principle, and not at all the reason or motive, which is the physical or efficient cause of action;” by which we understand him to mean volition, as that is the thing in dispute.
