I Want To Do Everything

Your Theory Of Partial Immortality Is Abhorrent To Me. I Would Rather Disbelieve In The Immortality Of My Own Soul Than Suppose The Boon Given To Me Was Withheld From Any Of My Fellow Creatures.

... It's Always Determined Characters Who Make The Greatest Fools.

The Death I Should Prefer Would Be To Break My Neck Off The Back Of A Good Horse At A Full Gallop On A Fine Day.

...i Cannot Help Being Astonished At The Furious And Ungoverned Execration Which All Reference To The Possibility Of A Fusion Of The Races Draws Down Upon Those Who Suggest It, Because Nobody Pretends To Deny That, Throughout The South, A Large Proportion Of The Population Is The Offspring Of White Men And Colored Women.

Cultivate In Young Minds An Equal Love Of The Good, The Beautiful And The Absurd; Most People's Lives Are Too Lead-colored To Lose The Smallest Twinkle Of Light From A Flash Of Nonsense.
