iv. oldal - ... we are living at a period of most wonderful' transition, which tends rapidly to accomplish that great end to which, indeed, all history points — the realization of the unity of mankind. Not a unity which breaks down the limits and levels the peculiar characteristics of the different nations of the earth, but rather a unity, the result and product of those very national varieties and antagonistic qualities.
363. oldal - The practice of funding has gradually enfeebled every state which has adopted it. The Italian republics seem to have begun it.
