With an earnest soul and a capital A.”

James Jeffrey Roche

“A brave endeavor
To do thy duty, whate'er its worth,
Is better than life with love forever
And love is the sweetest thing on earth.”

Sir Hugo's Choice, reported in Bartlett's Familiar Quotations, 10th ed. (1919).

“The love of man and woman is as fire
To warm, to light, but surely to consume
And self-consuming die…
But comrade-love is as a welding blast
Of candid flame and ardent temperature:
Glowing more fervent, it doth bind more fast;
And melting both but makes the union sure.
The dross alone is burnt—till at the last
The steel, if cold, is one and strong and pure.”

James Jeffrey Roche

My Comrade, reported in Bartlett's Familiar Quotations, 10th ed. (1919).
