painting of Dr Samuel Johnson


"Those who do not feel pain seldom think that it is felt."

* * *

"Depend upon it that if a man talks of his misfortunes there is something in them
that is not disagreeable to him; for where there is nothing but pure misery there
never is any recourse to the mention of it."

* * *

“There is no wisdom in useless and hopeless sorrow."
Samuel Johnson
(1709 - 84)
