| The world is wide, and I will not waste my life in friction when it could be turned into momentum. | In externals we advance with lightening express speed, in modes of thought and sympathy we lumber on in stage-coach fashion. | This seems to be the law of progress in everything we do; it moves along a spiral rather than a perpendicular; we seem to be actually going out of the way, and yet it turns out that we were really moving upward all the time. | Temperance is moderation in the things that are good and total abstinence from the things that are foul. |
