My Soul Hates The Fool

Lovely Promise And Quick Ruin Are Seen Nowhere Better Than In Gothic Architecture.

To Call War The Soil Of Courage And Virtue Is Like Calling Debauchery The Soil Of Love.

Everything In Nature Is Lyrical In Its Ideal Essence, Tragic In Its Fate, And Comic In Its Existence.

Every Nation Thinks Its Own Madness Normal And Requisite; More Passion And More Fancy It Calls Folly, Less It Calls Imbecility.

Happiness Is The Only Sanction Of Life; Where Happiness Fails, Existence Remains A Mad And Lamentable Experiment.
