Eternity is in love with the productions of time. Every thing possible to be believed is an image of truth. Excess of sorrow laughs, excess of joy weeps. Expect poison from the standing water. Exuberance is beauty. He who desires but acts not breeds pestilence. He who has suffered you to impose on him knows you. Bring out number weight and measure in a year of dearth. For Mercy has a human heart; Pity, a human face; Love, the human form divine; and Peace, the human dress. Better murder an infant in its cradle than nurse an unacted desire. |
