It behooves us always to bear in mind, that while actions are always to be judged by the immutable standard of right and wrong, the judgments which we pass upon men must be qualified by considerations of age, country, station, and other accidental circumstances; and it will then be found that he who is most charitable in his judgment is generally the least unjust.
Robert SoutheyThat charity is bad which takes from independence its proper pride, from mendicity its salutary shame.
Robert SoutheyThou hast been called, O sleep, the friend of woe, But 'tis the happy that have called thee so.
Robert Southey
