The house shakes...with the roar of the cannon. No sleep for me tonight.
Abigail Adams
Image
I begin to think, that a calm is not desirable in any situation in life. Man was made for action and for bustle too, I believe.

I feel anxious for the fate of our monarchy, or democracy, or whatever is to take place. I soon get lost in a labyrinth of perplexities but, whatever occurs, may justice and righteousness be the stability of our times, and order arise out of confusion. Great difficulties may be surmounted by patience and perseverance.
