Big Birthday

A wonderful fact to reflect upon, that every human creature is constituted to be that profound secret and mystery to every other.

No one is useless in this world who lightens the burden of it to anyone else.

He would make a lovely corpse.

[To a friend in Washington Heights] It opens the lungs, washes the countenance, exercises the eyes, and softens down the temper; so cry away.

Home is a name, a word, it is a strong one; stronger than magician ever spoke, or spirit ever answered to, in the strongest conjuration. [What? You don't know what "conjuration" means???!!]


Happy 200th Birthday!
