Edmund BurkeThe same sun which gilds all nature, and exhilarates the whole creation, does not shine upon disappointed ambition.
Edmund BurkeHe that borrows the aid of an equal understanding doubles his own; he that uses that of a superior elevates his own to the stature of that he contemplates.
Edmund BurkeThe greatest crimes do not arise from a want of feeling for others but from an over-sensibilit y for ourselves and an over-indulgence to our own desires
