Quotes

  • The fears of one class of men are not the measure of the rights of another.
  • Avarice is the vice of declining years.
  • Institutions may crumble and governments fall, but it is only that they may renew a better youth, and mount upwards like the eagle.
  • Ennui is the desire of activity without the fit means of gratifying the desire.
  • Truth is not exciting enough to those who depend on the characters and lives of their neighbors for all their amusement; and if a story is told of more than common interest, ennui is sure to have its joy in adding embellishments. If hours did not hang heavy, what would become of scandal?
  • By common consent grey hairs are a crown of glory; the only object of respect that can never excite envy.
