Signal Lights: A Library of Guiding Thoughts by Leading Thinkers of To-Day (Classic Reprint)

Excerpt from Signal Lights: A Library of Guiding Thoughts by Leading Thinkers of to-Day

Man seeks a triple perfection: first, intellectual, which no creature below him aspires to or is capable of; second, a moral, or divine perfection, consisting of those things where unto we tend by spiritual means, but which, here, we can not attain; lastly, a social perfection, consisting of the elements which are essential to the existence of society, and embracing also, in its higher department, all those graces which render human intercourse beautiful, and satisfy those finer instincts which God has implanted in the breasts of all superior beings.
