As I have mentioned here before, I subscribe to Liberty Tree Quotes, receiving an e-mail with three of them most days. They are usually good, sometimes great and once in a while uninspiring.

“Duties are not performed for duty’s sake,
but because their neglect would make the man uncomfortable.

the duty of contenting his spirit,
the duty of making himself agreeable to himself.”
