Scratching Is One Of Nature's Sweetest Gratifications,

True Freedom Is To Have Power Over Oneself For Everything.

For Truth Itself Has Not The Privilege To Be Spoken At All Times And In All Sorts.

And One Might Therefore Say Of Me That In This Book I Have Only Made Up A Bunch Of Other People's Flowers, And That Of My Own I Have Only Provided The String That Ties Them Together.

One Should Always Have One's Boots On And Be Ready To Leave.

If Love And Ambition Should Be In Equal Balance, And Come To Jostle With Equal Force, I Make No Doubt But That The Last Would Win The Prize.
