I'm always trying to do things that no one has ever seen before.
God is always trying to give good things to us, but our hands are too full to receive them.
It is the steady and merciless increase of occupations, the augmented speed at which we are always trying to live, the crowding of each day with more work than it can profitably hold, which has cost us, among other things, the undisturbed enjoyment of friends.
