#7611A prig is a fellow who is always making you a present of his opinions.
-- George Eliot
#7612A private sin is not so prejudicial in the world as a public indecency.
-- Miguel de Cervantes
#7613A real friend isn't someone you use once and then throw away.

man contemplates it, bearing within him the image of a cathedral.

#7618 "...A strange enigma is man!"
"Someone calls him a soul concealed in an animal," I suggested.
"Winwood Reade is good upon the subject," said Holmes. "He remarked
that, while the individual man is an insoluble puzzle, in the aggregate he
becomes a mathematical certainty. You can, for example, never foretell what
any one man will do, but you can say with precision what an average number
will be up to. Individuals vary, but percentages remain constant. So says
the statistician."
-- Sherlock Holmes, "The Sign of Four"

-- B. Franklin
