Every human being has a work to carry on within, duties to perform abroad, influence to exert, which are peculiarly his, and which no conscience but his own can teach.
William Ellery Channing
One good husband is worth two good wives, for the scarcer things are, the more they are valued.
Benjamin Franklin
Whether you call my heart affectionate, or you call it womanish: I confess, that to my misfortune, it is soft.
