To see the miraculous in the common

The invariable mark of wisdom is to see the miraculous in the common.

Common sense is as rare as genius, - is the basis of genius

People that seem so glorious are all show; underneath they are like everyone else.

Society is always taken by surprise at any new example of common sense.

Poverty, Frost, Famine, Rain, Disease, are the beadles and guardsmen that hold us to Common Sense.
