Tis Best To Build No Castles In The Air.

The Mind Naturally Accommodates Itself, Even To The Most Ridiculous Improprieties, If They Occur Frequently.

A Little Alarm Now And Then Keeps Life From Stagnation.

While All The Pomp And Circumstance Of War Animated Others, It Only Saddened Me; And All Of Past Reflection, All Of Future Dread, Made The Whole Grandeur Of The Martial Scene, And All The Delusive Seduction Of Martial Music, Fill My Eyes Frequently With Tears.
