True happiness never entered at an eye;
True happiness resides in things unseen. [ Young ]

What a sublime doctrine it is, that goodness cherished now is eternal life already entered on! [ Channing ]

There is a vein of inconsistency in every woman's heart, within whose portals love hath entered. [ Mme. Deluzy ]

Taking the first footstep with a good thought, the second with a good word, and the third with a good deed, I entered Paradise. [ Zoroaster ]

The Greeks adored their gods by the simple compliment of kissing their hands; and the Romans were treated as atheists if they would not perform the same act when they entered a temple. This custom, however, as a religious ceremony declined with paganism, but was continued as a salutation by inferiors to their superiors, or as a token of esteem among friends. [ Disraeli ]

It is to be hoped that, with all the modern improvements, a mode will be discovered of getting rid of bores: for it is too bad that a poor wretch can be punished for stealing your pocket handkerchief or gloves, and that no punishment can be inflicted on those who steal your time, and with it your temper and patience, as well as the bright thoughts that might have entered into your mind (like the Irishman who lost the fortune before he had got it), but were frightened away by the bore. [ Byron ]
