Again, continual hard labor irritates our tempers and sours our dispositions; the whole system become worn out with toil and fatigue; nature herself becomes almost exhausted, and we care but little whether we live or die.”
—Maria Stewart (1803–1879)
“Vanity working on a weak head, produces every sort of mischief.”
—Jane Austen (1775–1817)
