I am madness maddened! That wild madness that's only calm to comprehend itself

If you begin the day with a laugh, you may, nevertheless, end it with a sob and a sigh.

Boy, take my advice, and never try to invent any thing but--happiness.

No mercy, no power but its own controls it. Panting and snorting like a mad battle steed that has lost its rider, the masterless ocean overruns the globe.

There's something ever egotistical in mountain-tops and towers, and all other grand and lofty things.

Students of history are horror-struck at the massacres of old; but in the shambles, men are being murdered to-day.

The terrors of truth and dart of death To faith alike are vain.
