Hell & Damnation. Not everyone indulged in diplomatic doubletalk. Liberia's Attorney General C.

". . . The dreams of great-souled and good men throughout the a¨es [have] been prevented by the base, the mean, the low bred, the.coward, the cheat, the dishonest, the gross, the ignorant men of varying low complexes, and who believe they are better than others. They are the men who teach and practice intolerance, hatred, dissension, racism, ignoble men who have left in their wake suffering, murder, carnage, rape, slavery, human bondage, death, destruction, hell and damnation. ...
