It is the Lord's Day, and I do believe that cheerful hearts and faces are not unpleasant in His sight. - Thomas Bailey Aldrich

The possession of unlimited power will make a despot of almost any man. There is a possible Nero in the gentlest human creature that walks.

At one bold swoop to wrest
From darkling death the best
That Death to Life can give!

The ring of a false coin is not more recognizable than that of a rhyme setting forth a simulated sorrow.
