Futurity is impregnable to mortal ken: no prayer pierces through heaven's adamantine walls. Whether the birds fly right or left, whatever be the aspect of the stars, the book of nature is a maze, dreams are a lie, and every sign a falsehood.
Friedrich Schiller
Image
I feel that I am a man of destiny.
Friedrich Schiller
Image
An honest man you may form of windle-straws, but to make a rogue you must have grist.
