Nothing in Nature, much less conscious being, Was e'er created solely for itself.
A strange alternative * * *Must women have a doctor or a dance?
A tardy vengeance shares the tyrant's guilt.
Man wants little, nor that little long.
Men are but men; we did not make ourselves.
What is revenge but courage to call in our honor's debts, and wisdom to convert others' self-love into our own protection?
