You cannot learn a man s nature from his natural foe. —Tennyson. No man's a failure till he's dead or loses his courage. —G. 11. Lorrimore. He does well, who serves rather the common weal than his own will. Thos. a Kempis. Every weak-minded fool who is afraid to face realities, trusts to ideals. —G. B. Burgin. It is not the intelligent man who rules, but intelligence; not the wise man, but wisdom. —Goethe. If you trace your family tree too lar back you may find a pirate or a horse thief hanging to the branches.--P. P. Shevlin. Far too long hath there been in woman a slave and a tyrant concealed. On that account woman is not yet capable of friendship; she knowelh only love. —Friedrich Niezsche.
