For the great benefits of our being- our life, health, and reason-we look upon ourselves.
It is not death we fear, but the thought of it.
To keep oneself safe does not mean to bury oneself.
The sun also shines on the wicked.
We can be thankful to a friend for a few acres or a little money; and yet for the freedom and command of the whole earth, and for the great benefits of our being, our life, health, and reason, we look upon ourselves as under no obligation.
Courage leads starward, fear toward death.
