Scope and content
Typescript copy of purported quotation from Quintin Hogg, with manuscript note stating that it is published in 'The Polytechnic and Its Founder Quintin Hogg', p.238:
'I do not care a rush what denomination you belong to; I do not very much care what special creed you profess, but I do care beyond all expression that the result of that creed in your daily life should be to make you a power for good amongst your fellow men. We hear much talk about creeds, professions of faith, and the like, but I want you to remember that when God started to write a creed for us, He did it, not in words that might change their meaning, but He set before us a Life, as though to teach us that whereas theology was a science which could be argued about, religion was a life and could only be lived.'
