Fame Can Never Make Us Lie Down

What Is Fame? A Fancied Life In Others' Breath.

Heaven Forming Each On Other To Depend, A Master, Or A Servant, Or A Friend, Bids Each On Other For Assistance Call, Till One Man's Weakness Grows The Strength Of All.

I Was Not Born For Courts And Great Affairs, But I Pay My Debts, Believe And Say My Prayers.

A Patriot Is A Fool In Ev'ry Age.

Thus Let Me Live, Unseen, Unknown, Thus Unlamented Let Me Die, Steal From The World, And Not A Stone Tell Where I Lie.
