Familiarity Is A Magician That Is Cruel

Men Are Always Optimists When They Look Inwards, And Pessimists When They Look Round Them.

Genius Cannot Escape The Taint Of Its Time More Than A Child The Influence Of Its Begetting.

Christianity Has Been Cruel In Much To The Human Race. It Has Quenched Much Of The Sweet Joy And Gladness Of Life; It Has Caused The Natural Passions And Affections Of It To Be Held As Sins.

The Bread Of Bitterness Is The Food On Which Men Grow To Their Fullest Stature; The Waters Of Bitterness Are The Debatable Ford Through Which They Reach The Shores Of Wisdom; The Ashes Boldly Grasped And Eaten Without Faltering Are The Price That Must Be Paid For The Golden Fruit Of Knowledge.

Great Men Always Have Dogs.
