Letter "P" » put out
«To prejudge other men's notions before we have looked into them is not to show their darkness but to put out our own eye»
«Whoso curseth his father or his mother, his lamp shall be put out in obscure darkness.»
«Thou hast rebuked the heathen, thou hast destroyed the wicked, thou hast put out their name for ever and ever.»
«The light of the righteous rejoiceth: but the lamp of the wicked shall be put out.»
«The mob is man voluntarily descending to the nature of the beast. Its fit hour of activity is night. Its actions are insane like its whole constitution. It persecutes a principle; it would whip a right; it would tar and feather justice, by inflicting fire and outrage upon the houses and persons of those who have these. It resembles the prank of boys, who run with fire-engines to put out the ruddy aurora streaming to the stars.»
