The Living Are Just The Dead On

How Strangely Do We Diminish A Thing As Soon As We Try To Express It In Words.

To Be Good We Must Needs Have Suffered; But Perhaps It Is Necessary To Have Caused Suffering Before We Can Become Better.

No Living Creature, Not Even Man, Has Achieved, In The Centre Of His Sphere, What The Bee Has Achieved In Her Own: And Were Some One From Another World To Descend And Ask Of The Earth The Most Perfect Creation Of The Logic Of Life, We Should Needs Have To Offer The Humble Comb Of Honey.

An Obstacle Is Not A Discouragement. It May Become One, But Only With Our Own Consent. So Long As We Refuse To Be Discouraged, We Cannot Be Discouraged.

Our Reason May Prove What It Will: Our Reason Is Only A Feeble Ray That Has Issued From Nature.
