A Man Should Not So Much Respect

The Virtue Of The Soul Does Not Consist In Flying High, But In Walking Orderly.

'tis The Sharpness Of Our Mind That Gives The Edge To Our Pains And Pleasures.

To Understand Via The Heart Is Not To Understand.

One May Disavow And Disclaim Vices That Surprise Us And Whereto Our Passions Transport Us. But Those Which By Long Habit Are Rooted In A Strong And Anchored In A Powerful Will Are Not Subject To Contradiction. Repentance Is But A Denying Of Our Will, And An Opposition Of Our Fantasies, Which Diverts Us Here And There.

No Wind Favors He Who Has No Destined Port.
