I could not at any age be content to take my place in a corner by the fireside and simply look on.
Probably the happiest period in life most frequently is in middle age, when the eager passions of youth are cooled, and the infirmities of age not yet begun; as we see that the shadows, which are at morning and evening so large, almost entirely disappear at midday.

At any age it does us no harm to look over our past shortcomings and plan to improve our characters and actions in the coming year.
