Nothing that was worthy in the past departs; no truth or goodness realized by man ever dies, or can die. - Thomas Carlyle

Not all his men may sever this,
It yields to friends', not monarchs', calls;
My whinstone house my castle is— I have my own four walls.

The barrenest of all mortals is the sentimentalist

Is not every true Reformer, by the nature of him, a Priest first of all? He appeals to Heaven's invisible justice against Earth's visible force; knows that it, the invisible, is strong and alone strong. He is a believer in the divine truth of things; a seer, seeing through the shows of things; a worshipper, in one way or the other, of the divine truth of things; a Priest, that is. If he be not first a Priest, he will never be good for much as a Reformer.
