Healthy Vanity Sweeps Through Life. Sickly Vanity

The Mind Scolds The Heart, Which Makes Excuses And Goes Its Own Way.

Abyss-mongering Makes Professors And Poets Feel Daring.

Ideas About Life Organize Perception; Names Of Emotions Organize Sensations; Rules Of Syntax Organize Thought. But Pain Comes On Its Own.

The Perfect Aphorism Would Achieve Classical Balance And Then Immediately Upset It.

Truth Can Remain Silent. Lies Must Be Spoken.
