~ Joseph Addison ~

~ Thomas Jefferson ~
The censure of those who are opposed to us, is the highest commendation that can be given us.
~ Seigneur De Saint-Evremond ~
He who would acquire fame must not show himself afraid of censure. The dread of censure is the death of genius.
~ William Gilmore Simms ~
