I Can Hear Of The Brilliant Accomplishments

I Begin To Think, That A Calm Is Not Desirable In Any Situation In Life. Man Was Made For Action And For Bustle Too, I Believe.

These Are The Times In Which A Genius Would Wish To Live. It Is Not In The Still Calm Of Life, Or The Repose Of A Pacific Station, That Great Characters Are Formed. The Habits Of A Vigorous Mind Are Formed In Contending With Difficulties. Great Necessities Call Out Great Virtues. When A Mind Is Raised, And Animated By Scenes That Engage The Heart, Then Those Qualities Which Would Otherwise Lay Dormant, Wake Into Life And Form The Character Of The Hero And The Statesman.

The House Shakes...with The Roar Of The Cannon. No Sleep For Me Tonight.

If We Expect To Inherit The Blessings Of Our Fathers, We Should Return A Little More To Their Primitive Simplicity Of Manners.

What Is Meat For One Is Not For Another--no Accounting For Fancy.
