A noisy man is always in the right.
Accomplishments have taken virtue's place, and wisdom falls before exterior grace.
Good sense, good health, good conscience, and good fame,--all these belong to virtue, and all prove that virtue has a title to your love.
The earth was made so various, that the mind Of desultory man, studious of change, And pleased with novelty, might be indulged.
Variety's the very spice of life, That gives it all its flavor.
But animated nature sweeter still, to soothe and satisfy the human ear.
