That There Should One Man Die Ignorant Who Had Capacity For Knowledge, This I Call A Tragedy.

Alas! We Know That Ideals Can Never Be Completely Embodied In Practice. Ideals Must Ever Lie A Great Way Off--and We Will Thankfully Content Ourselves With Any Not Intolerable Approximation Thereto! Let No Man, As Schiller Says, Too Querulously "measure By A Scale Of Perfection The Meager Product Of Reality" In This Poor World Of Ours.

Eternity Looks Grander And Kinder If Time Grow Meaner And More Hostile.

A Judicious Man Looks At Statistics, Not To "get Knowledge, But To Save Himself From Having Ignorance Foisted 'on Him".

The Sincere Alone Can Recognize Sincerity.
