confidence hands two
Charles Caleb Colton When young, we trust ourselves too much, and we trust others too little when old. Rashness is the error of youth, timid caution of age.

fall errors giving
Charles Caleb Colton Power. like the diamond, dazzles the beholder, and also the wearer; it dignifies meanness; it magnifies littleness; to what is contemptible, it gives authority; to what is low, exaltation.
