“Now it is a strange thing, but things that are good to have and days that are good to spend are soon told about, and not much to listen to; while things that are uncomfortable, palpitating, and even gruesome, may make a good tale, and take a deal of telling anyway.”
“What is beautiful is good, and who is good will soon be beautiful.”
“How soon 'not now' becomes 'never'!”
“But soon, I shall die, and what I now feel be no longer felt. Soon these burning miseries will be extinct.”
“These words are now mine, but soon they’ll be ours.”
