Excerpt from Golden Thoughts on Mother, Home, and Heaven: From Poetic and Prose Literature of All Ages and All Lands; With an Introduction As a citizen of Brooklyn, I am proud of the fact that in our chief public park there stands a monument to the author of Home, sweet Home. Those immortal lines have made delicious music by many an humble fireside. They have inspired encouragement under many a lowly roof. But John Howard Payne struck a deeper truth than he may have intended when he wrote, there is no place like home. This applies to something more enduring than the heart's attachment to the spot which sheltered our childhood. For all our after lives, and our eternal destinies - for shaping the character, forming the habits, determining the, choice for good or evil, and for the salvation or ruin of the soul there is no place like home. Nothing is so dangerous and damning as a bad home. Nothing is so effective in fitting us for usefulness here and for heaven here after as a pure, happy Christ-lighted home - for like heaven the lamb is the light thereof.
