We Moderns Do Not Believe In Demigods,

I, Who Ne'erwent For Myself A Begging, Go A Borrowing,and That For Others. Borrowing's Much The Sameas Begging; Just As Lending Upon Usuryis Much The Same As Thieving.

Joy Makes Us Giddy, Dizzy.

The End-purpose Of All Art Is Enjoyment!

But How Many Moments Are Already Past! Ah! Who Thinks Of Those That Are Past?

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.
