Excerpt from Lectures on the Formation of Character, Temptations and Mission of Young Men

Those who have already broken away from the restraints of virtue, and cast down their moral principles, we can. Hardly expect to reach through motives and considerations such as are presented in this volume. The hardening influences through which they have passed,-the wild excitements to which they have been accustomed, - have rendered them indifferent to the voice of warning, or the accents of kindness and persuasion. So many of the chords of their hearts are broken, that scarcely any remain to vibrate under appeals prompted by a sense of their danger, and a deep interest in their welfare.
