And by this inward strength it is that heroes preserve themselves in a calm and quiet state, and enjoy a presence of mind and the free use of their reason in the midst of those terrible accidents that amaze and confound other people.”
—François, Duc De La Rochefoucauld (1613–1680)
“The child should have the advantage of ignorance as well as of knowledge, and is fortunate if he gets his share of neglect and exposure.”
