Sensible people get the greater part of their own dying done during their own lifetime - Samuel Butler

If, again, the most superficial introspection teaches the physiologist that his conscious life is dependent upon the mechanical adjustments of his body, and that inversely his body is subjected with certain limitations to his will, then it only remains for him to make one assumption more, namely, that this mutual interdependence between the spiritual and the material is itself also dependent on law, and he has discovered the bond by which the science of the matter and the science of consciousness are united into a single whole.

We all love best not those who offend us least, nor those who have done most for us, but those who make it most easy for us to forgive them.

He that complies against his will
Is of his own opinion still.
