Where Duty Is Plain Delay Is Both

Common Sense Is, Of All Kinds, The Most Uncommon. It Implies Good Judgment, Sound Discretion, And True And Practical Wisdom Applied To Common Life.

Words Are Both Better And Worse Than Thoughts, They Express Them, And Add To Them; They Give Them Power For Good Or Evil; They Start Them On An Endless Flight, For Instruction And Comfort And Blessing, Or For Injury And Sorrow And Ruin.
