Horace SmithThinkers

Courage is the fear of being thought a coward.

The Eye is far quicker a means of expression than speech — Speech is a laggard and a sloth; the eyes shoot forth an electric fluid that condenses all the elements of sentiment and passion in one single emanation.

Inconsistency is the only thing in which men are consistent.

Speech is a laggard and a sloth, while the eyes shoot forth an electric fluid that condenses all the elements of sentiment and passion in one single emanation.

The Sun is god's lidless eye.
