Neither would I have for it any great admiration.” ~ Robert Green Ingersoll

Alike reflect thy rays: alike thou lightest
The path of meeting or of parting love–
Alike on mingling or on breaking hearts
Thou smil’st in throned beauty!” ~ Charles Robert Maturin -

To counteract that, strictly for self-defense, I wanted to get bigger.” ~ John Cena
- “It is comparatively a faint and reflected beauty that is admired, not an essential and intrinsic one. It is because the old are weak, feel their mortality, and think that they have measured the strength of man. They will not boast; they will be frank and humble.

The prospect of the young is forward and unbounded, mingling the future with the present.” ~ Henry David Thoreau

- “Sweet was the sound, when oft, at evening’s close,
Up yonder hill the village murmur rose;
There as I passed, with careless steps and slow,
The mingling notes came soften’d from below;
The swain responsive as the milkmaid sung,
The sober herd that low’d to meet their young;
The noisy geese that gabbled o’er the pool,
The playful children just let loose from school;
The watch-dog’s voice that bay’d the whispering wind,
And the loud laugh that spoke the vacant mind;
These all in sweet confusion sought the shade,
And fill’d each pause the nightingale had made.” ~ Oliver Goldsmith - “The leader, mingling with the vulgar host, Is in the common mass of matter lost.” ~ Homer

- “… the most fiendish plant I know of, the sort of thing Beelzebub might pluck to make a bouquet for his mother-in-law … it looks as if it had been made out of a sow’s ear for the spathe, and the tail of a rat that died of Elephantiasis for the spadix. The whole thing is mingling of unwholesome greens, vivid purples, and pallid pinks, the livery of putrescence in fact, and it possesses and odor to match the coloring.” ~ Edward Augustus Bowles

- “Only by being suspended aloft, by dangling my mind in the heavens and mingling my rare thought with the ethereal air, could I ever achieve strict scientific accuracy in my survey of the vast empyrean.
