— "Content"
“How different is...the ready hand, tearful eye, and soothing voice, from the ostentatious appearance which is called pity!”
— "Compassion"
“Life is a warfare; and he who easily desponds deserts a double duty—he betrays the noblest property of man, which is dauntless resolution; and he rejects the providence of that All-Gracious Being who guides and rules the universe.”
— "Despondence"
