“No nation is better than its sacred book. In that book are expressed its highest ideals of life, and no nation rises above those ideals. No nation has a sacred book to be compared with ours. This American nation from its first settlement at Jamestown to the present hour is based upon and permeated by the principles of the Bible. The more this Bible enters into our national life the grander and purer and better will that life become.”
![“The more profoundly we study this wonderful book [the Bible], and the more closely we observe its divine precept, the better citizens we will become and the higher will be our destiny as a nation.” quote by William McKinley](https://sms4smile.com/quotes/img-quotes/a41/william-mckinley-15533_bible_the-more-profoundly-we-study-this-wonder_1875013.jpg)
