The Cherry Orchard • Anton Chekhov“Spiritual wants and instincts are as various in the human family as are physical appetites, complexions, and features, and a man is only at his best, morally, when he is equipped with the religious garment whose color and shape and size most nicely accomodate themselves to the spiritual complexion, angularities, and stature of the individual who wears it.”

Thus his person is not endangered, and his States and all their clans are preserved."”
