"When the Soul
attains philosophy, she is free." -Socrates
"It is said an eastern monarch once charged his wise men to invent a
sentence,
to be ever in view, and which should be true and appropriate in all times
and
situations. They presented him with the words, 'And this, too, shall pass
away.'
How much it expresses! How chastening in the hour of pride! How consoling
in the
depths of affliction!" -Abraham Lincoln
