Our common liberty is consecrated by a common sorrow.
Anger, even when it punishes the faults of delinquents, ought not to precede reason as its mistress, but attend as a handmaid at the back of reason, to come to the front when bidden. For once it begins to take control of the mind, it calls just what it does cruelly.
Books are the ever burning lamps of accumulated wisdom.
For nature makes women to be won, and men to win.
