All that the hand of man can uprear, is either overturned by the hand of man, or at length by standing and continuing consumed: as if there were a secret opposition in Fate (the unevitable decree of the Eternal) to control our industry, and countercheck all our devices and proposing. Possessions are not enduring, children lose their names. . . .

He who will not reason is the bigot; he who cannot is a fool; he who dares not is a slave.
|
My thoughts hold mortal strife; I do detest my life,
|

|
He who will not reason is a bigot he who cannot is a fool and he who dares not is a slave.
|
He who will not reason is a bigot; he who cannot is a fool; and he who dares not is a slave.
