"Keep clear of courts: a homely life transcends The vaunted bliss of monarchs and their friends."

Next Quote

No themes are so human as those that reflect for us, out of the confusion of life, the close connection of bliss and bale, of the things that help with the things that hurt, so dangling before us forever that bright hard medal, of so strange an alloy, one face of which is somebody's right and ease and the other somebody's pain and wrong.

— Henry James
