The present only is a man's possession; the past is gone out of his hand wholly, irrevocably. He may suffer from it, learn from it, —in degree, perhaps, expiate it; but to brood over it is utter madness.
—Dinah Maria Mulock
A deadly viper once bit a hole snipe's hide; But 'twas the viper, not the snipe, that died.
