1. Nothing is so painful to the human mind
as a great and sudden change.
2. The beginning is always today.
3. Nothing contributes so much to tranquilize the mind as a
steady purpose.
4. Invention, it must be humbly admitted, does not consist in
creating out of void but out of chaos.
5. It is true, we shall be monsters, cut off from all the world;
but on that account we shall be more attached to one another. |
