Excerpt from Heredity Its Relations to Human Development: Correspondence Between Elizabeth Thompson and Loring Moody
Having from early manhood been actively and earnestly engaged in various humane labors for the improvement and welfare of our race; having set on foot and organized several reformatory and benevolent movements, the last of which was the Children's Protective Society; and having been a close observer of the practical workings and effects of benevolent enterprises during nearly a half-century ;and from these having been led to a larger survey of the field, including all of our public and private charitable, benevolent and corrective institutions, the conclusion is unavoidable that all of these institutions are at best only temporary expedients, for, while they afford some relief and a few instances of reform, they leave the roots and sources of evil untouched by their operations.
