May I make two citations from the words of a discerning editorial writer, not one of my faith, but one of much faith: 'If we neglect the divine ... and give ourselves over wholly to the human,' he said, 'we may certainly count upon nothing but the triumph of pessimism.... True optimism must rest upon a calm, unshakable faith in eternal life and in the unlimited goodness of him who gives it.'
