O Reputation! Dearer Far Than Life.

History Is Clarified Experience.

What Men Call Luck Is The Prerogative Of Valiant Souls, The Fealty Life Pays Its Rightful Kings.

O Visionary World, Condition Strange, Where Naught Abiding Is But Only Change.

And Blessed Are The Horny Hands Of Toil.

Sorrow Is The Great Idealizer.
