Indifference is the invincible giant of the world.--_Ouida._

~Indigestion.~--Old friendships are destroyed by toasted cheese, and hard

salted meat has led to suicide. Unpleasant feelings of the body produce

correspondent sensations in the mind, and a great scene of wretchedness

is sketched out by a morsel of indigestible and misguided food.--_Sydney

Smith._

~Individuality.~--There are men of convictions whose very faces will light

up an era, and there are believing women in whose eyes you may almost

read the whole plan of salvation.--_T. Fields._

Individuality is everywhere to be spared and respected as the root of

everything good.--_Richter._

The epoch of individuality is concluded, and it is the duty of reformers

to initiate the epoch of association. Collective man is omnipotent upon

the earth he treads.--_Mazzini._

~Indolence.~--I look upon indolence as a sort of suicide; for the man is

effectually destroyed, though the appetite of the brute may

survive.--_Chesterfield._
