The explanation avails nothing, which in leading us from one difficulty involves us in another.
Nature is harmony in discord.
Drive Nature out with a pitchfork, yet she hurries back, And will burst through your foolish contempt, triumphant.
Each day that fate adds to your life, put down as so much gain.
It is your concern when your neighbor's wall is on fire.
He wins every hand who mingles profit with pleasure.
