"and signs his own name and rating, Percy Algernon Willoughby call him that Chief Yeoman, U.S. Navy, and glues that on behind the other sixty-seven endorsements and gloats over it, and for a few minutes feels like a bureau chief himself. Then for another minute or two he thought of mailing it to them. And he could see them reading that in Washington!
If He did indeed love them, and would fain have had them ever with Him, but could not, then He would not be all-powerful." "I see you a universalist, a great contrast to my Early Father here, who gloats over the delightful prospect of watching from his comfortable heaven the tortures of all unbelievers. But, tell me, what do you think would be our position in your unseen world?
If there be a good God I cannot believe that He takes pleasure in the sufferings of men that He gloats over the agonies of His children. If there be a good God, He will, to the extent of His power, lessen the evils of life.

"An' Man the Oppressor sets an' gloats over you, same as he's settin' now. Hain't that been your experience, madam?"

Why, I got so lost in it myself that I forgot all about John Flint, until I happened to glance up and see that he was up to the eyes in it, just like I was! He likes the fights and he gloats over the spoils. He's asking for more. I think of turning Paul loose on him."
