Temptation is the fire that brings up the scum of the heart.
So long as men can breathe, or eyes can see, So long lives this, and this gives life to thee.
We must take the current when it serves, or lose our ventures.
The hideous god of war.
Woe, destruction, ruin, and decay; the worst is death and death will have his day.
Men must learn now with pity to dispense; For policy sits above conscience.
