nd
pleasure.--_Chapone._

Emotion, whether of ridicule, anger, or sorrow; whether raised at a
puppet-show, a funeral, or a battle, is your grandest of levelers. The
man who would be always superior should be always
apathetic.--_Bulwer-Lytton._

~Employment.~--The wise prove, and the foolish confess, by their conduct,
that a life of employment is the only life worth leading.--_Paley._

Life will frequently languish, even in the hands of the busy, if they
have not some employment subsidiary to that which forms their main
pursuit.--_Blair._

~Emulation.~--Emulation embalms the dead; envy, the vampire, blasts the
living.--_Fuseli._

~Enemies.~--It is the enemy whom we do not suspect who is the most
dangerous.--_Rojas._

~Energy.~--The longer I live, the more deeply am I convinced that that
which makes the difference between one man and another--between the weak
and powerful, the great and insignificant--is energy, invincible
determination; a purpose once formed, and then death or victory. This
quality will do anything that is to be done in the world; and no
two-legged creature can become a man without it.--_Charles Buxton._

The truest wisdom is a resolute determination.--_Napoleon._

To think we are able is almost to be so; to determine upon attainment is
frequently attainment itself. Thus earnest resolution has often seemed
to have about it almost a savor of omnipotence.--_Samuel Smiles._

Oh! for a forty parson power.--_Byron._

Daniel Webster struck me much like a steam-engine in trousers.--_Sydney
Smith._

This world belongs to the energetic.--_Emerson._

~Enjoyment.~--Whatever advantage we snatch beyond the certain portion
allotted us by nature is like money spent before it is due, which at the
time of regular payment will be missed and regretted.--_Johnson._

~Ennui.~--I have also seen the world, and after long experience have
discovered that ennui is our greatest enemy, and remunerative labor our
most lasting friend.--_Moeser._

I am wrapped in dismal thinking.--_Shakespeare._

~Enthusiasm.~--Enthusiasts soon understand each other.--_Washington
Irving._

Enthusiasm is an evil much less to be dreaded than superstition.
Superstition is the disease of nations; enthusiasm, that of individuals:
the former grows inveterate by time, the latter is cured by it.--_Robert
Hall._

Enthusiasm is that temper of mind in which the imagination has got the
better of the judgment.--_Warburton._
