I Have Taken Pride In Others, Never

While Life Is In Your Body, You Have The Rein Of All Thoughts In Your Hands.

In My Younger Days I Struggled Constantly With An Overwhelming But Pure Love Affair - My Only One, And I Would Have Struggled With It Longer Had Not Premature Death, Bitter But Salutary For Me, Extinguished The Cooling Flames. I Certainly Wish I Could Say That I Have Always Been Entirely Free From Desires Of The Flesh, But I Would Be Lying If I Did.

I Desire That Death Find Me Ready And Writing, Or If It Please Christ, Praying And Intears.

How Difficult It Is To Save The Bark Of Reputation From The Rocks Of Ignorance.

A Good Death Does Honour To A Whole Life.
