Do Not Be Deceived Into

Infinite Toil Would Not Enable You To Sweep Away A Mist; But By Ascending A Little, You May Often Look Over It Altogether. So It Is With Our Moral Improvement: We Wrestle Fiercely With A Vicious Habit, Which Could Have No Hold Upon Us If We Ascended Into A Higher Moral Atmosphere.

It Has Always Appeared To Me, That There Is So Much To Be Done In This World, That All Self-inflicted Suffering Which Cannot Be Turned To Good Account For Others, Is A Loss - A Loss, If You May So Express It, To The Spiritual World.

It Has Been Said With Some Meaning That If Men Would But Rest In Silence, They Might Always Hear The Music Of The Spheres.

Simple Ignorance Has In Its Time Been Complimented By The Names Of Most Of The Vices, And Of All The Virtues.

Remember That In Giving Any Reason At All For Refusing, You Lay Some Foundation For A Future Request.
