A saint in crape is twice a saint in lawn.
An obstinate person does not hold opinions; they hold them.
Atheists put on false courage and alacrity in the midst of their darkness and apprehensions, like children who, when they fear to go in the dark, will sing for fear.
The soul's calm sunshine, and the heartfelt joy.
To the Elysian shades dismiss my soul, where no carnation fades.
An excuse is worse and more terrible than a lie; for an excuse is a lie guarded.
