I am always sorry when any language is lost, because languages are the pedigrees of nations.
Samuel JohnsonWhoever shall review his life, will find that the whole tenor of his conduct has been determined by some accident of no apparent moment.
Samuel JohnsonLife is but short; no time can be afforded but for the indulgence of real sorry, or contests upon questions seriously momentous. Let us not throw away any of our days upon useless resentment, or contend who shall hold out longest in stubborn malignity. It is best not to be angry; and best, in the next place, to be quickly reconciled.
Samuel Johnson
