Edward Young
Quote #38
A friend is worth all hazards we can run.
More from Edward Young
Thoughts shut up want air, And spoil, like bales unopen'd to the sun.
Friendship's the wine of life; but friendship new (Not such was his) is neither strong nor pure.
'Tis greatly wise to talk with our past hours, And ask them what report they bore to heaven.
How blessings brighten as they take their flight!
Time flies, death urges, knells call, Heaven invites, Hell threatens.
The chamber where the good man meets his fate Is privileg'd beyond the common walk Of virtuous life, quite in the verge of heaven.
Life's cares are comforts; such by Heav'n design'd; He that hath none must make them, or be wretched.
A death-bed 's a detector of the heart.
