Life is the desert, life the solitude, death joins us to the great majority.
Ambition! powerful source of good and ill!
It calls Devotion! genuine growth of night! Devotion! Daughter of Astronomy! An undevout astronomer is mad!
A land of levity is a land of guilt.
Body and soul, like peevish man and wife, United jar, and yet are loth to part.
Souls made of fire, and children of the sun, With whom revenge is virtue.
