Quote #10 on Religious Struggle Quotes >> Religious Powers and Cruelty

“Do you know that I have seen some people who acted as though they thought that when the Savior said "Suffer little children to come unto me, for of such is the kingdom of heaven," he had a raw-hide under his mantle, and made that remark simply to get the children within striking distance?”
