“Faith, faith, faith in ourselves, faith, faith in God, this is the secret of greatness.”

Call to the Nation
Context: Faith, faith, faith in ourselves, faith, faith in God, this is the secret of greatness. If you have faith in all the three hundred and thirty millions of your mythological Gods, and in all the Gods which foreigners have now and again introduced into your midst, and still have no faith in yourselves, there is no salvation for you.
