The Thing In The World I Am

Not Being Able To Govern Events, I Govern Myself, And Apply Myself To Them If They Will Not Apply Themselves To Me.

Whom Conscience, Ne'er Asleep, Wounds With Incessant Strokes, Not Loud, But Deep.

'tis The Sharpness Of Our Mind That Gives The Edge To Our Pains And Pleasures.

It Is Easier To Sacrifice Great Than Little Things.

One Must Be A Little Foolish If One Does Not Want To Be Even More Stupid.
