• But hospitality must be for service, and not for show, or it pulls down the host. The brave soul rates itself too high to value itself by the splendor of its table and draperies. It gives what it hath, and all it hath, but its own majesty can lend a better grace to bannocks and fair water than belong to city feasts.

• it pleaseth me when I see through the meadows
  The tents and pavilions set up, and great joy have I
  When I see o'er the campana knights armed and horses arrayed.
  
  And it pleaseth me when the scouts set in flight the folk with
  their goods;
  And it pleaseth me when I see coming together after them an host of
  armed men.

• The weak are not a noble breed. Their sublime deeds of faith, daring, and self-sacrifice usually spring from questionable motives. The weak hate not wickedness but weakness; and one instance of their hatred of weakness is hatred of self. All the passionate pursuits of the weak are in some degree a striving to escape, blur, or disguise an unwanted self. It is a striving shot through with malice, envy, self-deception, and a host of petty impulses; yet it often culminates in superb achievements.
