Post 5.12.2012.25


Phaedra: The proverb runs: ‘There is one thing alone
That stands the brunt of life throughout its course,
A quiet conscience,’ … a just and quiet conscience
Whoever can attain it.
Time holds a mirror, as for a young girl,
And sometimes as occasion falls, he shows us
The ugly rogues of the world.  I would not wish
That I should be seen among them.
