It Very Seldom Happens To A Man

Wine Gives A Man Nothing... It Only Puts In Motion What Had Been Locked Up In Frost.

He That Outlives A Wife Whom He Has Long Loved, Sees Himself Disjoined From The Only Mind That Has The Same Hopes, And Fears, And Interest; From The Only Companion With Whom He Has Shared Much Good And Evil; And With Whom He Could Set His Mind At Liberty, To Retrace The Past Or Anticipate The Future. The Continuity Of Being Is Lacerated; The Settled Course Of Sentiment And Action Is Stopped; And Life Stands Suspended And Motionless.

What Is Written Without Effort Is In General Read Without Pleasure.

Men More Frequently Require To Be Reminded Than Informed.

Hides From Himself His State, And Shuns To Know That Life Protracted Is Protracted Woe.
