I have spent more than half a lifetime trying to express the tragic moment.

Who lies for you will lie against you.

Who hath a prospect of the different state of perfect happiness or misery that attends all men after this life, depending on their behavior, the measures of good and evil that govern his choice are mightily changed.

Children (nay, and men too) do most by example.

With books we stand on the shoulders of giants.

The next thing is by gentle degrees to accustom children to those things they are too much afraid of. But here great caution is to be used, that you do not make too much haste, nor attempt this cure too early, for fear lest you increase the mischief instead of remedying it.

Error is none the better for being common, nor truth the worse for having lain neglected.
