The rainbow mirrors human aims and action. Think, and more clearly wilt thou grasp it, seeing Life is but light in many-hued reflection.
Where I cannot be moral, my power is gone.
Those who have no hope for a future life are already dead for the present one.
The highest cannot be spoken; it can only be acted.
Sing it not in mournful numbers.
Let us not dream that reason can ever be popular. Passions, emotions, may be made popular; but reason remains ever the property of an elect few.
