But I have ever thought religion a concern purely between our God and our consciences, for which we were accountable to him, and not to the priests. I never told my own religion, nor scrutinized that of another. I never attempted to make a convert, nor wished to change another's creed.

For it is in our lives, and not from our words, that our religion must be read. By the same test the world must judge me.
