Leisure is pain; take off our chariot wheels; how heavily we drag the load of life!

Think naught a trifle, though it small appear; Small stands the mountain, moments make the year, and trifles life.

Previous Quote
In an active life is sown the seed of wisdom; but he who reflects not, never reaps; has no harvest from it, but carries the burden of age without the wages of experience; nor knows himself old, but from his infirmities, the parish register, and the contempt of mankind. And age, if it has not esteem, has nothing.
