Strana 197 - God loves from whole to parts: but human soul Must rise from individual to the whole. Self-love but serves the virtuous mind to wake, As the small pebble stirs the peaceful lake; The centre moved, a circle straight succeeds, Another still, and still another spreads; Friend, parent, neighbour, first it will embrace; His country next; and next all human race...
Strana 236 - Let him that stole steal no more : but rather let him labour, working with his hands the thing which is good, that he may have to give to him that needeth.
Strana 330 - For we know that the whole creation groaneth and travaileth in pain together until now. And not only they, but ourselves also, which have the firstfruits of the Spirit, even we ourselves groan within ourselves, waiting for the adoption, to wit, the redemption of our body.
Strana 477 - Even those who dwell beneath its very zone, Or never feel the rage, or never own; What happier natures shrink at with affright, The hard inhabitant contends is right. Virtuous and vicious every man must be, Few in the extreme, but all in the degree; The rogue and fool by fits is fair and wise; And even the best by fits what they despise.
Strana 111 - Suave, mari magno turbantibus sequora ventis, E terra magnum alterius spectare laborem : Non quia vexari quemquam est jucunda voluptas, Sed quibus ipse malis careas quia cernere suave est.
Strana 111 - Dans l'adversité de nos meilleurs amis, nous trouvons toujours quelque chose qui ne nous déplaît pas.
Strana 329 - MAN, that is born of a woman, hath but a short time to live, and is full of misery. He cometh up, and is cut down like a flower ; he fleeth as it were a shadow, and never continueth in one stay.
Strana 19 - I am a selfish man, as selfish as any man can be. But in me, somehow or other, so it happens, selfishness has taken the shape of benevolence.
Strana 22 - Quibus ex rebus conflatur et efficitur id, quod quaerimus, honestum ; quod, etiam si nobilitatum non sit, tamen honestum est, quodque vere dicimus, etiam si a nullo laudetur, natura esse laudabile.
Strana 479 - Lust, through some certain strainers well refined, Is gentle love, and charms all womankind; Envy, to which the' ignoble mind's a slave, Is emulation in the learn'd or brave ; Nor virtue male or female can we name, But what will grow on pride or grow on shame.
