“A sense of duty pursues us ever. It is omnipresent, like the Deity. If we take to ourselves the wings of the morning, and dwell in the uttermost parts of the sea, duty performed or duty violated is still with us, for our happiness or our misery. If we say the darkness shall cover us, in the darkness as in the light our obligations are yet with us.” IfsStillsLightHappinessMorningDarknessSeaDutyWingsMiseryObligationPursueDeities Book:Works: with a Biographical Memoir Source: Works: with a Biographical Memoir
