“It’s very hot,
And weighs a lot,
As many a guardsman knows,
So off that helmet goes.”

“There is a law in each well-ordered nation
To curb those raging appetites that are
Most disobedient and refractory.”
—William Shakespeare (1564–1616)

“Though a censure lies against those who are poor and proud, yet is Pride sooner to be forgiven in a poor person than in a rich one; since in the latter it is insult and arrogance; in the former, it may be a defense against temptations to dishonesty; and, if manifested on proper occasions, may indicate a natural bravery of mind, which the frowns of fortune cannot depress.”
—Samuel Richardson (1689–1761)
