There Never Was A Great Man Yet

Youth Is Immortal; Tis The Elderly Only Grow Old!

To Treat Of Human Actions Is To Deal Wholly With Second Causes.

For My Part I Love Sleepy Fellows, And The More Ignorant The Better. Damn Your Wide-awake And Knowing Chaps. As For Sleepiness, Itis One Of The Noblest Qualities Of Humanity. There Is Something Sociable About It, Too. Think Of Those Sensible & Sociable Millions Of Good Fellows All Taking A Good Long Friendly Snooze Together, Under The Sod--no Quarrels, No Imaginary Grievances, No Envies, Heart-burnings, & Thinking How Much Better That Other Chap Is Off--none Of This: But All Equally Free-&-easy, They Sleep Away & Reel Off Their Nine Knots An Hour, In Perfect Amity.

All Truth Is Profound.

The Western Spirit Is, Or Will Yet Be (for No Other Is, Or Can Be) The True American One.
