The higher you are the safer you are. The Earth down there, that, that’s your enemy because once you hit that, boy, you splatter.”

“Every accent, every emphasis, every modulation of voice, was so perfectly well turned and well placed, that, without being interested in the subject, one could not help being pleased with the discourse; a pleasure of much the same kind with that received from an excellent piece of music.
