— Ch. 1 (The Book of The Damned (1919))

These hells , and hundreds and thousands of others, are the places in which sinners pay the penalty of their crimes . As numerous as are the offences that men commit, so many are the hells in which they are punished : and all who deviate from the duties imposed upon them by their caste and condition, whether in thought , word , or deed , are sentenced to punishment in the regions of the damned.


— Vishnu Purana, in "The Vishnu Purana, translated by Horace Hayman Wilson, [1840] CHAP. VI.

— Henry Clay Ledyard, as quoted in "Not Hell, But Hope: Writings from the Heritage of American Universalism" compiled by Karen E. Dau, New York State Convention of Universalists
