Fatigue yourself, but once, to utter exhaustion, and to the end of life you shall not recover the former vigour of your frame.
Let heart-sickness pass beyond a certain bitter point, and the heart loses its life for ever.
granting that we had both the will and the sense to choose our friends well, how few of us have the power! or, at least, how limited, for most, is the sphere of choice!
Remember, then, that I, at least, have warned you, that the happiness of your life, and its power, and its part and rank in earth or in heaven, depend on the way you pass your days now.
