William Jennings Bryan
A corporation has no rights except those given it by law. It can exercise no power except that conferred upon it by the people through legislation, and the people should be as free to withhold as to give, public interest and not private advantage being the end in view.
William Jennings Bryan
Atheists have just as much civil right to teach atheism as Christians have to teach Christianity agnostics have just as much right to teach agnosticism as Christians have to teach their religion.
William Jennings Bryan
If that vital spark that we find in a grain of wheat can pass unchanged through countless deaths and resurrections, will the spirit of man be unable to pass from this body to another?
William Jennings Bryan
Agnosticism is the natural attitude of the evolutionist. How can a brute mind comprehend spiritual things?
William Jennings Bryan
I hope the two wings of the Democratic Party may flap together.
William Jennings Bryan
If matter mute and inanimate, though changed by the forces of Nature into a multitude of forms, can never die, will the spirit of man suffer annihilation when it has paid a brief visit, like a royal guest, to this tenement of clay?
William Jennings Bryan
No one can earn a million dollars honestly.
