John Jay Chapman quotes about
heartbroken home ambition
The men and woman who make the best boon companions seem to have given up hope of doing something else...some defect of talent or opportunity has cut them off from their pet ambition and has thus left them with leisure to take an interest in their lives of others. Your ambition may be, it makes him keep his thoughts at home. But the heartbroken people - if I may use the word in a mild, benevolent sense - the people whose wills are subdued to fate, give us consolation, recognition, and welcome.
boredom done leaving-me
As for boredom ... I notice that it leaves me as soon as I am doing something that has got to be done.
society new-testament criticize
You cannot criticize the New Testament. It criticizes you.
steps culture easy
Learning is not easy, but hard; culture is severe. The steps to Parnassus are steep and terribly arduous.
