A hanging in a good quarrel is an easy death they say, though I could never hear of any that came back to say so.
Robert Louis StevensonWe look for some reward of our endeavors and are disappointed that not success, not happiness, not even peace of conscience, crowns our ineffectual efforts to do well. Our frailties are invincible, our virtues barren; the battle goes sore against us to the going down of the sun.
Robert Louis Stevenson
