The quest for glory can never be satisfied, it must be extinguished.
Martin Luther

The proud spirit of the original owners of these vast prairies inherited through centuries of fierce and bloody wars for their possession, lingered last in the bosom of Sitting Bull. With his fall the nobility of the Redskin is extinguished, and what few are left are a pack of whining curs who lick the hand that smites them.
L. Frank Baum

The constant habit of perusing devout books is so indispensable, that it has been termed the oil of the lamp of prayer.
