When some one sorrow, that is yet reparable, gets hold of your mind like a monomania,–when you think, because Heaven has denied you this or that, on which you had set your heart, that all your life must be a blank,–oh, then diet yourself well on biography,–the biography of good and great men.

Hang out thy balance, and weigh them both; and if thou give the preference to woman, all I can say is, the next time Juno ruffles thee, O Jupiter, try the weed.
