“So, in our wisdom and fair justice we go on - "Giving to dust that is a little gilt, More laud than gold e'er dusted;" proclaiming the merits of the bad wine, and making it, by every token, as enticing as we can; and blessing our stars that the good will be found out by its flavor "without our stir." As it is inestimable, we seek not to win esteem for it; as it is beyond all praise, we bestow no praises upon it.” GivingLittlesFoundWinningStarsJusticeGoes OnBlessingFairsGoldPraiseWineEsteemDustMeritFlavorGood WillTokensProclaimingEnticing Author:Samuel Laman Blanchard
“God gave a law ... called justice. But they have made a law for themselves that is terrible and intricate, and they cannot escape it, for the evil will and the good will are caught alike in its meshes, and it is darkness to the eyes that see and a stumbling block to the feet that run. This law is called necessity.” MadeEyeRunningLawEvilJusticeDarknessFeetTerribleCaughtBlockGood WillIntricateStumblingMeshStumbling BlocksEyes That See Author:Jessie Sampter
“It is a common thing to screw up justice to the pitch of an injury. A man may be over-righteous, and why not over-grateful, too? There is a mischievous excess that borders so close upon ingratitude that it is no easy matter to distinguish the one from the other; but, in regard that there is good-will in the bottom of it, however distempered; for it is effectually but kindness out of the wits.” MenMayMatterEasyJusticeCommonKindnessRegardGratefulBottomWitBordersInjuryWhy NotExcessRighteousScrewsGood WillScrew UpsIngratitudeMischievousCommon Things Author:Seneca the Younger
