I abhor a hoe. I am fond of flowers but not of dirt, and had rather buy them than cultivate them.
I cannot harness a horse. I am afraid of a cow.
Every life is march from innocence, through temptation, to virtue or vice.
Religion is not a conclusion of the reason.
Every life is a march from innocence, through temptation, to virtue or vice.
It is easy to condemn, it is better to pity.
