Beware Of entrance to a quarrel ; but, being in, Bear't that the opposed may beware of thee.

Halaman 29 - And only the Master shall praise us, and only the Master shall blame; And no one shall work for money, and no one shall work for fame. But each for the joy of working, and each in his separate star, Shall draw the Thing as he sees it for the God of Things as They Are!
Halaman 19 - Members of the House of Representatives and two Members of the Senate whose memories we honor today.
