Shame is pride's cloak. The bird a nest, the spider a web, man friendship. The hours of folly are measured by the clock, but of wisdom no clock can measure. The road to excess leads to the palace of wisdom...for we never know what is enough until we know what is more than enough. Think in the morning. Act in the noon. Eat in the evening. Sleep in the night. Can I see another's woe, and not be in sorrow, too? Can I see another's grief, and not seek for kind relief? The selfish smiling fool, and the sullen frowning fool, shall be both thought wise, that they may be a rod. The fox provides for himself, but God provides for the lion. The head Sublime, the heart Pathos, the genitals Beauty, the hands & feet Proportion. The lust of the goat is the bounty of God. |
