Nothing Under The Sun Is

The Most Agreeable Of All Companions Is A Simple, Frank Man, Without Any High Pretensions To An Oppressive Greatness; One Who Loves Life, And Understands The Use Of It; Obliging Alike At All Hours; Above All, Of A Golden Temper And Steadfast As An Anchor. For Such An One We Gladly Exchange The Greatest Genius, The Most Brilliant Wit, The Profoundest Thinker.

For Me The Greatest Beauty Always Lies In The Greatest Clarity.

To Borrow Scarce Is Better Than To Beg; As Lending, Lending Upon Interest, Scarce Better Is Than Stealing.

For The Will And Not The Gift Makes The Giver.

We Moderns Do Not Believe In Demigods, But Our Smallest Hero We Expect To Feel And Act As A Demigod.
