Side 386 - Why has not man a microscopic eye ? For this plain reason, man is not a fly.
Side 253 - IF you should see a flock of pigeons in a field of corn; and if (instead of each picking where and what it liked, taking just as much as it wanted, and no more) you should see ninety-nine of them gathering all they got into a heap; reserving nothing for themselves but the chaff and the refuse; keeping this heap for one, and that the weakest perhaps...

Side 80 - Just what you hear you have; and what's unknown The same, my lord, if Tully's or your own. All that we feel of it begins and ends In the small circle of our foes or friends; To all beside as much an empty shade...
