Standing with fear, and must with horror fall,
And destined unto judgment, after all.”

If virtue won’t answer our purpose, we must use vice, or our opponents will put us out of office, and this was as true in Washington’s day as it is now, and always will be.””
—Henry Brooks Adams (1838–1918)
“Thought and beauty, like a hurricane or waves, should not know conventional, delimited forms.”
