  • The sneaking arts of underling tradesmen are thus erected into political maxims for the conduct of a great empire; for it is the most underling tradesmen only who make it a rule to employ chiefly their own customers.

  • Somewhere in my soul a thought went up in my mind today that I have had before, but did not finish, some way back, I could not fix the year.
