It carries a burden which is no burden; it will not be kept back by anything low and mean; it desires to be free from all wordly affections, and not to be entangled by any outward prosperity, or by any adversity subdued.

Democracy means the opportunity to be everyone's slave.

I have nothing but myself to write about, no facts, no theories, no opinions, no adventures, no sentiments, nothing but my own poor barren individualism, of considerable interest to me, but i do not know why i should presume it will be so to you. egotism is not tiresome, or it ought not to be, if one is sincere about oneself; but it is so hard to be sincere. well, never mind, i mean to be, and you know me well enough to see through me when i am humbugging.
