"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 dignity in wickedness, whether in purple or rags; and hell is a democracy of devils, where all are equals."
Wisdom

"Yet habit - strange thing! what cannot habit accomplish?"
Habit

"At such times, under an abated sun; afloat all day upon smooth, slow heaving swells; seated in his boat, light as a birch canoe; and so sociably mixing with the soft waves themselves, that like hearth-stone cats they purr against the gunwale; these are the times of dreamy quietude, when beholding the tranquil beauty and brilliancy of the ocean's skin, one forgets the tiger heart that pants beneath it; and would not willingly remember, that this velvet paw but conceals a remorseless fang."
Duality

"I'll try a pagan friend, thought I, since Christian kindness has proved but hollow courtesy."
