Let the fools rage, I swerved in nought,
Something to perfection brought;”

I think so too; for never gaz’d the moon
Upon the water as he’ll stand and read
As ‘twere my daughter’s eyes: and, to be plain,
I think there is not half a kiss to choose
Who loves another best.”
—William Shakespeare (1564–1616)
“We have the pleasures suitable to our lot; let us not usurp those of greatness. Ours are more natural and all the more solid and sure for being humbler. Since we will not do so out of conscience, at least out of ambition let us reject ambition.”
—Michel de Montaigne (1533–1592)
“... anything so delightful as Washington I have never seen elsewhere. There were a mingled simplicity and grandeur, a mingled state and quiet intimacy, a brilliancy of conversation—the proud prominence of intellect over material prosperity which does not exist in any other city of the Union.”

“It is an esoteric doctrine of society that a little wickedness is good to make muscle; as if conscience were not good for hands and legs.”
