कोई भी व्यक्ति जो जाँच-परख और मनन करता है, यह देखे बिना नहीं रह सकता कि इस धरती पर लोगों की केवल एक ही जाति है, जो केवल उस मिट्टी और जलवायु के अनुसार एक-दूसरे से भिन्न होती है जिसमें वे रहते हैं।
No person who examines and reflects, can avoid seeing that there is but one race of people on the earth, who differ from each other only according to the soil and the climate in which they live.

सुरुनाम की गोरी महिलाओं की लंबी उम्र पुरुषों की तुलना में वास्तव में इतनी अधिक होती है (मुख्य रूप से, जैसा कि मैंने कहा, उनकी हर तरह की अति के कारण) कि मैंने अक्सर ऐसी पत्नियों को देखा है जिन्होंने चार पतियों को दफनाया है, लेकिन इस देश में ऐसा एक भी पुरुष नहीं मिला जो दो पत्नियों से ज़्यादा जीवित बचा हो।

निश्चित रूप से एक यूरोपीय महिला सार्वजनिक रूप से बिल्कुल नग्न दिखने मात्र के विचार से ही उंगलियों तक शर्म से लाल हो जाएगी; लेकिन शिक्षा और पूर्वाग्रह ही सब कुछ हैं, क्योंकि यह एक सर्वसिद्ध सत्य है कि जहाँ आत्म-ग्लानी की कोई भावना नहीं होती, वहाँ निश्चित रूप से कोई शर्म भी नहीं हो सकती।

मैं उन्हें अब भी एक खुशहाल लोग कहता हूँ, जिनकी शांति और वास्तविक नैतिकता यूरोपीय बुराइयों से दूषित नहीं हुई है; और जिनकी भूलें केवल अज्ञानता की भूलें हैं, न कि किसी दिखावटी सभ्यता और एक बनावटी तथा पाखंडी ईसाई धर्म की गहरी जड़ें जमा चुकी दुष्टता।
A happy people I call them still, whose peace and genuine morals have not been contaminated with European vices; and whose errorsare only the errors of ignorance, and not the rooted depravity of a pretended civilization, and a spurious and mock Christianity.
