Opposition strengthens the manly will.

Anger is the resentment of the animal, and gentle blood alone makes the gentleman.

Enthusiasm imparts itself magnetically and fuses all into one happy and harmonious unity of feeling and sentiment.

Many are those who can argue; few are those who can converse

Every sin provokes its punishment.

Sympathy wanting, all is wanting; its personal magnetism is the conductor of the sacred spark that lights our atoms, puts us m human communion, and gives us to company, conversation, and ourselves.

Civilization degrades the many to exalt the few.
