All Greatness Of Character Is Dependent On

History, Like Love, Is So Apt To Surround Her Heroes With An Atmosphere Of Imaginary Brightness.

Systems Are To Be Appreciated By Their General Effects, And Not By Particular Exceptions.

A Refined Simplicity Is The Characteristic Of All High Bred Deportment, In Every Country, And A Considerate Humanity Should Be The Aim Of All Beneath It.

How Easy It Is For Generous Sentiments, High Courtesy, And Chivalrous Courage To Lose Their Influence Beneath The Chilling Blight Of Selfishness, And To Exhibit To The World A Man Who Was Great In All The Minor Attributes Of Character, But Who Was Found Wanting When It Became Necessary To Prove How Much Principle Is Superior To Policy.

It Is Better For A Man To Die At Peace With Himself Than To Live Haunted By An Evil Conscience!
