If a man does not make new acquaintances, as he advances through life, he will soon find himself left alone. A man, Sir, should keep his friendship in constant repair.—Samuel Johnson.


They say, and I am glad they say,

I cannot tell, but this I know—

From quiet homes and first beginnings

Out to the undiscovered ends

There's nothing worth the wear of winning
