Scope and Contents

"I would so live that each day will add new experience to life." (page 34)
"I still wish for more freedom but it probably is best for me that I haven't more until I learn to use what I have properly." (page 37)
"A standard to live by is necessary." (page 54).
"I have just been thinking that we are too apt to sit in judgment." (page 57)
"I could not yield to doing work I knew not scientific. Would not compromise. Only real science or religion is honest. But oil not found by these methods and others not doing much better than I."
