I am past thirty, and three parts iced over. - Matthew Arnold

How generally, with how many of us, are the main concerns of life limited to these two: the concern for making money, and the concern for saving our souls!

The will is free; Strong is the soul, and wise, and beautiful; The seeds of god-like power are in us still; Gods are we, bards, saints, heroes, if we will!

On the breast of that huge Mississippi of falsehood called History, a foam-bell more or less is no consequence.
