We see how past ages have loitered and erred. “Is perhaps our generation free from irrationality and error?

—Henry David Thoreau (1817–1862)
“A comfortable house is a great source of happiness. It ranks immediately after health and a good conscience.”
—Sydney Smith (1771–1845)
“Cold an old predicament of the breath:

—Thomas Jefferson (1743–1826)
