O Reputation! Dearer Far Than Life.

Talent Is That Which Is In A Man's Power; Genius Is That In Whose Power A Man Is.

I Tell Ye Wut, My Judgment Is You're Pooty Sure To Fail, Ez Long 'z The Head Keeps Turnin' Back For Counsel To The The Tail.

It Seems To Me That The Bane Of Our Country Is A Profession Of Faith Either With No Basis Of Real Belief, Or With No Proper Examination Of The Grounds On Which The Creed Is Supposed To Rest.

With Every Anguish Of Our Earthly Part The Spirit's Sight Grows Clearer.

To Genius Life Never Grows Commonplace.
