Quotes

• “But man, being, as I have said, essentially an active being, he must find in activity his joy, as well as his duty and glory. And labor, like everything else that is good, is its own exceeding great reward.”
• “The purity of the critical ermine, like that of the judicial, is often soiled by contact with politics.”
• “Felicity, not fluency, of language is a merit.”
• “A Thought embodied and embrained in fit words, walks the earth a living being.”
• “Nothing is rarer than the use of a word in its exact meaning.”
• “The familiar writer is apt to be his own satirist. Out of his own mouth is he judged.”
