“The goods of fortune ... were never intended to be talked out of the world.But as virtue and true wisdom lie in the middle of extremes,on one hand, not to neglect and despise riches, so as to forget ourselves,and on the other, not to pursue and love them so, as to forget God;Mto have them sometimes in our heads,but always something more important in our hearts.”
—Laurence Sterne (17131768)
“And this school wasnt keeping anymore,
Unless for penitents who took their seat
Upon its doorsteps as at mercys feet
To make up for a lack of meditation.”
