Our Bravest And Best Lessons Are Not

Ideas In The Head Set Hands About Their Several Tasks.

Who Speaks To The Instincts Speaks To The Deepest In Mankind, And Finds The Readiest Response.

An Author Who Sets His Reader On Sounding The Depths Of His Own Thoughts Serves Him Best.

Good-humor, Gay Spirits, Are The Liberators, The Sure Cure For Spleen And Melancholy. Deeper Than Tears, These Irradiate The Tophets With Their Glad Heavens. Go Laugh, Vent The Pits, Transmuting Imps Into Angels By The Alchemy Of Smiles. The Satans Flee At The Sight Of These Redeemers.

There Is Virtue In Country Houses, In Gardens And Orchards, In Fields, Streams And Groves, In Rustic Recreations And Plain Manners, That Neither Cities Nor Universities Enjoy.
