[Christian Science by Mark Twain]@TWC D-Link bookChristian Science CHAPTER VII 18/35
The man born two centuries from now will think he has arrived in hell; and all in good time he will think he knows it.

History is always repeating itself, because conditions are always repeating themselves.
Out of duplicated conditions history always gets a duplicate product. READING LETTERS AT MEETINGS I wonder if there is anything a Member can do that will not raise Mrs. Eddy's jealousy?
