There is small chance of truth at the goal, where there is not childlike humility at the starting-post.
Samuel Taylor ColeridgeAs long as we have to administer the law we must do so according to the law as it is. We are not here to make the law.
Samuel Taylor ColeridgeI look'd to Heav'n, and try'd to pray; But or ever a prayer had gusht, A wicked whisper came and made My heart as dry as dust.
Samuel Taylor ColeridgeWomen have their heads in their hearts. Man seems to have been destined for a superior being; as things are, I think women generally better creatures than men. They have weaker appetites and weaker intellects but much stronger affections. A man with a bad heart has been sometimes saved by a strong head; but a corrupt woman is lost forever.
Samuel Taylor Coleridge
