Inconsistency Is My Very Essence; It Is

As Far As Possible, Join Faith To Reason.

In Other Living Creatures The Ignorance Of Themselves Is Nature, But In Men It Is A Vice.

Contemplate The Extent And Stability Of The Heavens, And Then At Last Cease To Admire Worthless Things.

Whose Happiness Is So Firmly Established That He Has No Quarrel From Any Side With His Estate Of Life?

It's My Belief That History Is A Wheel. 'inconstancy Is My Very Essence,'? Says The Wheel. Rise Up On My Spokes If You Like But Don't Complain When You're Cast Back Down Into The Depths. Good Times Pass Away, But Then So Do The Bad. Mutability Is Our Tragedy, But It's Also Our Hope. The Worst Of Times, Like The Best, Are Always Passing Away.
