John William Dawson quotes
-
“The science of the earth... invites us to be present at the origin of things, and to enter into the very worship of the Creator.”
-- John William Dawson -
“No nation has been able to establish itself, as a nation in Palestine up to this day, no national union and no national spirit have prevailed there. The motley, impoverished tribes which have occupied it have held it as mere tenants at will, temporary landowners, evidently waiting for those entitled to the permanent possession of the soil.”
-- John William Dawson
-
“No money on earth can buy the love and affection that has been given to me by a grateful nation.”
