Boldness Is A Mask For Fear, However

What Precious Drops Are Those, Which Silently Each Other's Track Pursue, Bright As Young Diamonds In Their Faint Dew?

He Has Not Learned The First Lesson Of Life Who Does Not Every Day Surmount A Fear.

But Wild Ambition Loves To Slide, Not Stand, And Fortune's Ice Prefers To Virtue's Land.

For All Have Not The Gift Of Martyrdom.

To Die For Faction Is A Common Evil, But To Be Hanged For Nonsense Is The Devil.
