Fame Has Only The Span Of The

Love Is Cruel As The Grave.

The Christian Religion, Outwardly And Even In Intention Humble, Does, Without Meaning It, Teach Man To Regard Himself As The Most Important Of All Created Things. Man Surveys The Starry Heavens And Hears With His Ears Of The Plurality Of Worlds; Yet His Religion Bids Him Believe That His Alone Out Of These Innumerable Spheres Is The Object Of His Master's Love And Sacrifice.

There Is No Applause That So Flatters A Man As That Which He Wrings From Unwilling Throats.

We Only See Clearly When We Have Reached The Depths Of Woe.

Emulation Is Active Virtue; Envy Is Brooding Malice.
