Blessed is he who expects nothing, for he shall never be disappointed

How happy is the blameless vestal’s lot!The world forgetting, by the world forgot.Eternal sunshine of the spotless mind!Each pray’r accepted, and each wish resign’d

A man should never be ashamed to own that he has been in the wrong, which is but saying in other words that he is wiser today than he was yesterday

Hope springs eternal in the human breast; Man never Is, but always To be blest. The soul, uneasy, and confin'd from home, Rests and expatiates in a life to come

Copy Image

Death, only death, can break the lasting chain;And here, ev'n then, shall my cold dust remain
