“I may have lost my heart, but not my self-control. ”
― Jane Austen, Emma

“Sometimes you must lose everything to gain it again, and the regaining is the sweeter for the pain of loss.”

“All men have heard of the Mormon Bible, but few except the "elect" have seen it, or, at least, taken the trouble to read it. I brought away a copy from Salt Lake. The book is a curiosity to me, it is such a pretentious affair, and yet so "slow," so sleepy; such an insipid mess of inspiration. It is chloroform in print. If Joseph Smith composed this book, the act was a miracle — keeping awake while he did it was, at any rate.”
― Mark Twain
