Charles Loring Brace Quotes
Thousands are the children of poor foreigners, who have permitted them to grow up without school, education, or religion.

So, at length, a great multitude of ignorant, untrained, passionate, irreligious boys and young men are formed, who become the "dangerous class" of our city.
