A man has no more right to say an uncivil thing than to act one; no more right to say a rude thing to another than to knock him down.
Samuel JohnsonThe prosperity of a people is proportionate to the number of hands and minds usefully employed. To the community, sedition is a fever, corruption is a gangrene, and idleness is an atrophy. Whatever body or society wastes more than it acquires, must gradually decay, and every being that continues to be fed, and eases to labor, takes away something from the public stock.
Samuel JohnsonWe seldom require more to the happiness of the present hour than to surpass him that stands next before us.
Samuel Johnson
