| Let us permit nature to have her way. She understands her business better than we do. |
| Let us... permit nature to take her own way; she better understands her own affairs than we. |
| Life is a dream; when we sleep we are awake, and when awake we sleep |
| Love to his soul gave eyes; he knew things are not as they seem. The dream is his real life; the world around him is the dream. |

| Man is certainly crazy. He could not make a mite, and he makes gods by the dozen. |
| Man is certainly stark mad; he cannot make a flea, and yet he will be making gods by dozens |
