With those that are not, never change thy mind.
--DENHAM.
The virtue of justice consists in moderation, as regulated by wisdom.
--ARISTOTLE.
Justice is the great interest of man on earth. It is the ligament
which holds civilized beings and civilized nations together.--WEBSTER.
KINDNESS.--A more glorious victory cannot be gained over another man
than this, that when the injury began on his part, the kindness should
begin on ours.--TILLOTSON.
Life is made up, not of great sacrifices or duties, but of little
things, in which smiles and kindness, and small obligations, given
habitually, are what win and preserve the heart, and secure comfort.
--SIR H. DAVY.

The fountain of thy soul
To love's sweet day-star, that shall o'er thee burn
Long as its currents roll.

KISSES.--A kiss from my mother made me a painter.--BENJAMIN WEST.
It is the passion that is in a kiss that gives to it its sweetness; it
is the affection in a kiss that sanctifies it.--BOVEE.
It is as old as the creation, and yet as young and fresh as ever. It
pre-existed, still exists, and always will exist. Depend upon it, Eve
learned it in Paradise, and was taught its beauties, virtues, and
varieties by an angel, there is something so transcendent in it.
--HALIBURTON.
Four sweet lips, two pure souls, and one undying affection,--these are
love's pretty ingredients for a kiss.--BOVEE.
