Commonplace Book

'"When a thing is done, it is done, and things for the most part do not produce any consequences at all, though people who have addled their brains with trivial thinking tell us that they do. Moralists and philosophers are the most shallow people in the world, for argument is ever less sound than conviction..."'

from The Princess Sophia by EF Benson (Chapter IV)
