Excerpt from Improvement Era, Vol. 6: February, 1903
Distance, then, to the mind of man, is as nothing. The infinity of extension, and of duration also, is matched by the infiniteness of man's mind, though that mind have a local habitation and a name within a tabernacle of ¿esh and bone, and that tabernacle be con fined within the four walls of a room. This is but a glimpse at the infinite powers of the mind of man in one direction, and under cir cumstances that somewhat veil the splendor of his intellectual and spiritual glory, what those powers may be in all particulars when man shall be made free from the restricting and depressing en vironment of the present earth-life, no one may say, but enough may be seen from what is here pointed out to establish the firm belief that, as the intellectual powers in man rise to match the in finitudes of extension and duration, as indicated, so, too, in all other respects shall the mind of man, when free, rise to the bar mony of all the infinities that make up the universe.
