The pursuit, even of the best things, ought to be calm and tranquil.
A smooth and tranquil transition is almost more important than a free and fair election.
Our days are a kaleidoscope. Every instant a change takes place in the contents. New harmonies, new contrasts, new combinations of every sort. Nothing ever happens twice alike. The most familiar people stand each moment in some new relation to each other, to their work, to surrounding objects. The most tranquil house, with the most serene inhabitants, living upon the utmost regularity of system, is yet exemplifying infinite diversities.
I love tranquil solitude And such society As is quiet, wise, and good.
Tranquil pleasures last the longest; we are not fitted to bear the burden of great joys.
