Quotes
While China is overrun today with bandits, its coast infected by pirates, and petty larceny frequent — conditions for which unprincipled politicians are largely responsible — the Chinese, as a people, are found honest, industrious, patient, and religious. They are also in many respects far more moral than any realize except those who have lived among them.
