What art can paint or gild any object in after life with the glow which nature gives to the first baubles of childhood? St. Peter's cannot have the magical power over us that the red and gold covers of our first picture-book possessed.

A forte always makes a foible.

As long as any man exists, there is some need of him.

The path of things is silent. Will they suffer a speaker to go with them?

Why should we fear to be crushed by savage elements, we who are made up of the same elements?

Fear God, and where you go men shall think they walk in hallowed cathedrals.

He takes men out of time and makes them feel eternity.
