Quotes
- “Rocking on a lazy billowWith roaming eyes,Cushioned on a dreamy pillow,Thou art now wise.Wake the power within thee slumbering,Trim the plot that's in thy keeping,Thou wilt bless the task when reapingSweet labour's prize.”
- “Order is the law of all intelligible existence.”
- “Converse with men makes sharp the glittering wit,But God to man doth speak in solitude.”
