“In every cradle decked with rosy wreath Lurk germs of death.”
Hope • VICTOR HUGO“Adorn thyself with simplicity and with indifference towards the things which lie between virtue and vice. Love mankind. Follow God. The poet says that Law rules all. And it is enough to remember that law rules all.”
Book VII • Marcus Aurelius“Violence does, in truth, recoil upon the violent, and the schemer falls into the pit which he digs for another.”
