Quotation from Chartism by Thomas Carlyle
“All men, we must repeat, were made by God, and have immortal souls in them”
Chartism, Chapter IV (James Fraser, London, 1840 (IA chartism00carluoft))
Spoken of the starving Irish 'Sanspotatoe' after a passage of harsh description; the sentence supplies the standard by which Carlyle's own contemptuous language can be judged.
