Sleep, Nurse of our life, Care’s best reposer, Nature's high'st rapture, and the vision giver. - Edward Herbert, 1st Baron Herbert of Cherbury

I must no less commend the study of anatomy, which whosoever considers, I believe will never be an atheist; the frame of man's body and coherence of his parts, being so strange and paradoxal, that I hold it to be the greatest miracle of nature.

Our life is but a dark and stormy night,
To which sense yields a weak and glimmering light,
While wandering Man thinks he discerneth all
By that which makes him but mistake and fall.

A good rider on a good horse, is as much above himself and others, as this world can make him.
