The Great Majority Of Men

Fear Defeats More People Than Any Other One Thing In The World.

Our Condition As Men Is Risky And Ticklish Enough. One Can Not Be Sure Of Himself And His Fortune An Hour, But He May Be Whisked Off Into Some Pitiable Or Ridiculous Plight.

All Life Is A Nap. The More Naps You Take The Better.

We Can Only Obey Our Own Polarity.

A Man Must Thank His Defects, And Stand In Some Terror Of His Talents. A Transcendent Talent Draws So Largely On His Forces As Tolame Him; A Defect Pays Him Revenues On The Other Side.
