    “The earliest instinct of the child, and the ripest experience of age, unite in affirming simplicity to be the truest and profoundest part for man. Likewise this simplicity is so universal and all-containing as a rule for human life, that the subtlest bad man, and the purest good man, as well as the profoundest wise man, do all alike present it on that side which they socially turn to the inquisitive and unscrupulous world.”
    —Herman Melville (1819–1891)

    “So we do not lose heart. Even though our outer nature is wasting away, our inner nature is being renewed day by day.”
    —Bible: New Testament, 2 Corinthians 4:16.

    “The idea that nations should love one another, or that business concerns or marketing boards should love one another, or that a man in Portugal should love a man in Peru of whom he has never heard—it is absurd, unreal, dangerous.... The fact is we can only love what we know personally. And we cannot know much.”
    —E.M. (Edward Morgan)
