Biography information from Wikiquote

Originators like Edward Young:

Think naught a trifle, though it small appear:
Small sands the mountain, moments make the year,
And trifles life.

Woes cluster. Rare are solitary woes;
They love a train, they tread each other’s heel.

The first sure symptom of a mind in health Is rest of heart and pleasure felt at home.
