Quotes by Bernard Barton

• No age, sex, or condition is above or below the absolute necessity of modesty; but without it one is vastly beneath the rank of man.
• As I walk'd by myself, I talk'd to myself, And myself replied to me; And the questions myself then put to myself, With their answers I give to thee.
