Bare is the companionless shoulder. Better the fighting than the loneliness. It is difficult to tame the pride. The three things that run swiftest are a stream of fire, a stream of water, and a stream of falsehood. Rattling silver, rattling sorrow.
Death is the poor man's doctor.
If you want praise, die, if you want blame, marry. May you get the reward in Heaven that's been denied you for your goodness in the earth. May yoor bed be made in Heaven. May the light of Heaven shine on your grave. May the smile of the Lord light you to glory.
