Bengel.
We are always clever with those who imagine we think as they do. To be shallow you must differ from people; to be profound you must agree with them.
Bulwer.
If you want to spoil all that God gives you; if you want to be miserable yourself and a maker of misery to others, the way is easy enough. Only be selfish, and it is done at once.
Charles Kingsley.
Language was given us that we might say pleasant things.
