Don't learn to do, but learn in doing. Let your falls not be on a prepared ground, but let them be bona fide falls in the rough and tumble of the world.
Samuel ButlerHe has spent his life best who has enjoyed it most. God will take care that we do not enjoy it any more than is good for us.
Samuel ButlerIf people would dare to speak to one another unreservedly, there would be a good deal less sorrow in the world a hundred years hence.
Samuel Butler
