- For beauty being the best of all we know
- Sums up the unsearchable and secret aims
- Of nature.

- O youth whose hope is high,
- Who dost to Truth aspire,
- Whether thou live or die,
- O look not back nor tire.
ROBERT BRIDGES, O Youth Whose Hope is High
- Since to be loved endures,
- To love is wise.
ROBERT BRIDGES, Since to be Loved Endures
That discipline which corrects the eagerness of worldly passions, which fortifies the heart with virtuous principles, which enlightens the mind with useful knowledge, and furnishes to it matter of enjoyment from within itself, is of more consequence to real felicity than all the provisions which we can make of the goods of fortune.
