Prejudice, not being founded on reason, cannot be removed by argument. - Samuel Johnson

Here I first mounted a little Highland steed; and if there had been many spectators, should have been somewhat ashamed of my figure in the march. The horses of the Islands, as of other barren countries, are very low: they are indeed musculous and strong, beyond what their size gives reason for expecting; but a bulky man upon one of their backs makes a very disproportionate appearance.

Integrity without knowledge is weak and useless, and knowledge without integrity is dangerous and dreadful.

Every man is rich or poor according to the proportion between his desires and his enjoyments.
