At once, good night-- Stand not upon the order of your going, But go at once. - William Shakespeare Look, the world's comforter, with weary gait, His day's hot task hath ended in the west: The owl, night's herald, shrieks--'tis very late; The sheep are gone to fold, birds to their nest; And coat-black clouds, that shadow heaven's light, Do summon us to part, and bid good night. - William Shakespeare Men live a moral life, either from regard to the Diving Being, or from regard to the opinion of the people in the world; and when a moral life is practised out of regard to the Divine Being, it is a spiritual life. Both appear alike in their outward form; but in their inward, they are completely different. The one saves a man, but the other does not; for he that leads a moral life out of regard to the Divine Being is led by him, but he who does so from regard to the opinion of people in the world is led by himself. - Emanuel Swedenborg (Swedberg)
