"Is there some principal of nature which states that we never know the quality of what we have until it is gone?"
Wisdom
"There is no quality in this world that is not what it is merely by contrast. Nothing exists in itself."
Philosophy
"With no power to annul the elemental evil in him, though readily enough he could hide it; apprehending the good, but powerless to be it; a nature like Claggart's, surcharged with energy as such natures almost invariably are, what recourse is left to it but to recoil upon itself and, like the scorpion for which the Creator alone is responsible, act out to the end the part allotted it."

Envy

Belief
"Thought he, it's a wicked world in all meridians; I'll die a pagan."
